MASON's GUI only has the ability to auto-repeat jobs, auto-stop (which triggers the repeat), and increase the seed each time. That's enough for simple tasks. MASON's command line also has a lightweight batch facility (doLoop ()). For options, try java sim.app.heatbugs.HeatBugs -help [or your own app -help] One item the job facility does not provide is telling you what your job number is. I should remedy that. In the mean time, you'll have to keep track of it in a static value set up on load and incremented in your SimState's constructor.
