It is well known now that MAS are particularly adapted to deal with distributed and dynamic environment. The management of business workflow, or data flow, flexible job shop manufacturing systems is typically a good application field for them. This kind of application requires flexibility to face with changes on the network.

We illustrate our proposition on an emulator of the flexible assembly cell in our university.
