Research　on　production　scheduling　for　manufacturing　cell　based　workshop　is　conducted.　The　scheduling　system　structure　for　manufacturing　cell　based　workshop　is　established　by　using　Multi-Agent　technology.　The　system　consists　of　Management　Agent,　Task　Agent,　and　Manufacturing　Cell　Agent.　The　machining　path　is　determined　through　the　negotiation　and　communication　of　each　Agents,　and　the　communication　between　each　Agents　is　achieved　by　the　CORBA　technology　of　OMG.　The　machining　sequence　and　start　time　are　determined　by　genetic　algorithm　(GA).　The　solution　to　machine　tool　failure,　urgent　task,　and　such　abnormal　affairs　is　proposed.　The　system　can　solve　the　dynamic　scheduling　problem　for　workshop　based　on　manufacturing　cell,　and　the　best　scheduling　for　task　can　be　achieved.　At　last,　a　scheduling　example　is　demonstrated.
