Abstract :
The work presented in this paper intends to clarify how multiagents can be an adequate paradigm to solve the challenges imposed by evolvable assembly systems (EAS). The article therefore shows that a multiagent architecture based on coalitions of assembly modules (CoBASA) can be successfully used to implement the control architecture for EAS.
