Agent-oriented software implies the realization of software components, which are mobile, autonomous, and solve problems by creating new software components during run-time, moving between locations, initiating or joining groups of other software components. Modeling and simulating those multiagent systems requires specific mechanisms for variable structure modeling. JAMES, a Java-Based Agent Modeling Environment for Simulation, realizes variable-structure models including mobility from the perspective of single autonomous agents. JAMES itself is based on parallel DEVS and adopts its abstract simulator model. Simulation takes place as a sending of messages between concurrently active and distributed entities which reflect the model's current structure. Thus, modeling and simulation are coined equally by an agent-based perspective.
