ABSTRACT: In multiagent system research, the work in building simulation model and the effort in developing analysis methods are closely related because building multiagent models relies heavily on new effective analysis methods while justifying new analysis methods needs the simulation results of multiagent models. MASSE (Multiagent Simulation Systematic Explorer) was proposed as an integrated environment which is aimed at (a) to conduct efficient simulation by intelligent scheduling, (b) to conduct intelligent data analysis and knowledge discovery on simulation data, and (c) to develop such analysis methods themselves. Current implementation of MASSE is described in this manuscript, and its usefulness is shown in three aspects: simple accommodation of existing simulators, satisfactory performance for adopting grid computing technique, and systematic data analysis tool. Collaboration among simulation developers and analysts can be strongly supported by using MASSE to incorporate various simulators and unified method for data analysis. We conclude that the current implementation of MASSE is satisfactory.

ABSTRACT: The genus Chlorosarcinopsis forms sarcinoid packages of ?@ cells and reproduces by forming naked biflagellate zoospores. The genus Neochlorosarcina is distinguished from Chlorosarcinopsis in having a thin cell wall around zoospores. We analyzed phylogenetic relationships of seven species of Chlorosarcinopsis and four species of Neochlorosarcina using 18S rDNA sequence data. The species of the Chlorosarcinopsis were separated into two clades, and those of Neochlorosarcina formed a monophyletic branch, which was far from the Chlorosarcinopsis clades. Groover and Bold (1969) investigated physiological abilities of species of Chlorosarcinopsis (which included species of Neochlorosarcina), and showed that the species were roughly divided into three groups by usage of nitrogen and carbon components. These groups correspond two clades of Chlorosarcinopsis and a clade of Neochlorosarcina. This result gave a phylogenetic meaning to the differences in the physiological abilities, and supported the separation of Neochlorosarcina from Chlorosarcinopsis based on a morphological attribute.
