Abstract	Emerging manufacturing systems (FMS) pose a significant problem for traditional material-flow and discrete-event simulators. The decomposition level in the traditional paradigm is too coarse to provide adaptive process selection and cost-based routing. Also, increased complexity within the manufacturing work cell has reduced the accuracy and confidence level of the input parameters to the simulation, such as cycle times. Thus, the simulation paradigm for industrial material flow and manufacturing processes must be revised. The focus of this paper is three-fold. First is an analysis of the problems facing the traditional manufacturing simulation methodology as a result of the new manufacturing techniques. Second is an explanation of the need for a continuous event, physically based workcell simulation functionality tightly integrated with a discrete simulation model that has been extended to properly handle the requirements for flexible processing and routing logic. Lastly, the paper addresses the future of factory floor simulation in the context of the emerging distributed control system of the FMS.
