: This paper gives a short overview of the multiagent-based simulation system PlaSMA. The system provides distributed discrete event simulation with conservative synchronisation. PlaSMA has been developed for scenarios within the logistics domain with simulation agents representing logistic objects like lorries or well as abstract services like route planning or transport brokering. PlaSMA is applied for evaluation and visualisation of control methods.
