Abstract
We are located in the context of the industrial system simulation, which are complex and distributed in operational, informational and decisional terms. In this chapter, we present the problems and a methodological solution. This methodology is based on the systemic approach and on multi-agent systems. It allows the modelling of distributed industrial systems such as enterprise consortiums. Moreover, it proposes a software platform architecture whish is currently instanced with Arena and dedicated agents.
