One of the major requirements of agile manufacturing strategies for the 21st century is to introduce intelligent information technology into manufacturing. The objective of the paper is to define a framework for development of simulation system for modelling of distributed manufacturing structures. The overview of main approaches to distributed manufacturing is given and their main features are highlighted. The paper focuses to holonic manufacturing concept. Aggregation of complex manufacturing structures [3] together with concept of distributed simulation [8] was used for putting forward a multi-agent simulation architecture. The proposed concept is expected to provide the framework for further research addressing fundamental issues of multi-agent manufacturing structures. It was verified through development of a pilot simulation system and subsequent experimentation with it.
