abstract = {Since consideration of individual customer? demands is of increasing importance, enterprises are in need of more flexible production and participate in supply chains or virtual enterprises to complement one another. However, participating enterprises have to meet several requirements such as providing a specified product at a defined time to the customer reliably. Customers will switch to other contractors for their orders in future if their requirements are not met. Thus, unfulfilled requirements will weaken the market position with a lasting influence for the respective enterprise. This situation is enforced by highly customised products even in serial production, dynamic behaviour of the supply chain itself as well as by high complexity of design and manufacturing processes. Consequently, innovative concepts for improved information logistics are necessary for competitive manufacturing. The idea of using multiagent systems for this purpose is very promising. This paper presents an approach for 
integrated agent-based process planning and production control and focuses on agents in the manufacturing domain as well as agent-based production control.},
