Multiagent simulation applies the concepts of multiagent systems to simulation. It is a perfect means to represent and examine emergent effects in distributed systems. Multiagent simulation models may be used to gain insights into system interdependencies, to make predictions and also for testing software systems. This chapter introduces the basic concepts and tools for agent based simulation and shows the possibilities of agent based simulation by means of the particular tool SeSAm. Extensions are presented that allow using multi agent simulation as an evaluation testbed for agent based application systems.
