In this paper, we use a simulation study to extend March\u2019s classic model by using locomotion and assessment as agents\u2019 problem\u2010solving strategies. First, we present a simulation framework that consists of external environment, communication networks, and agents\u2019 learning strategies. Second, based on the framework, we develop March\u2019s model to depict external environment. Third, we introduce four archetypical networks: a regular network, a small\u2010world network, a preferentially attached network, and a totally connected network as agents\u2019 communication structure. Finally, we design three experiments to explore the performance implication of locomotors and assessors under different networks. Results suggest that network structure affects performance more than learning strategy. The more efficient the network is at diffusing knowledge, the better the performance in the short run but the worse in the long run. Locomotors can help keep diversity; a high proportion of locomotors\u2019 team has a better final performance but need more equilibrium time. Furthermore, moderate composition among locomotors and assessors increases costly interaction uncertainty. We discuss the findings\u2019 implications for the regulatory mode and problem\u2010solving
