Description

The name is currently hard-coded, which prevents

  1. naming the participant in an expressive way
  2. using multiple micro-managers in a single simulation

I think we should make it configurable.

Research direction

Trace the code path where the participant name is currently hard-coded and identify how configuration is passed into a micro-manager. Define how callers will supply distinct names, then verify that one simulation can use multiple micro-managers with expressive participant names.
