I have to double check, but I think the JavaSim simulation environment in
Java (and his C++ "cousin"):

http://marlish.ncl.ac.uk:8080/JavaSim/
http://marlish.ncl.ac.uk:8080/C++SIM/


supports this ability.
   SWARM is agent based not only object based but there are definetely good
ideas there.

Also check:

There are several design patterns for concurrency and "active objects".
