MASON is a fast discrete-event multiagent simulation library core in Java, designed to be the foundation for large custom-purpose Java simulations, and also to provide more than enough functionality for many lightweight simulation needs. MASON contains both a model library and an optional suite of visualization tools in 2D and 3D.

/** Synapse is a simple synapse connection between two Cells.  Cells have a "from" (outgoing)
    Cell, and a "to" (incoming) Cell.  Synapses also have two types, type_chemical for chemical
    synapses and type_gap for gap junctions. These two types are closely correlated with the
    values returned by DisplaySynapses.java, so be careful when adding new types or changing
    their inherent values. Synapses also have a number, indicating the number of synapses
    from the one cell to the other (all such synapses are represented by the same Synapse
    object). */
