Special purpose simulators, including the appropriate Artificial Intelligence tools to acquire transparency and flexibility, are needed for the balanced development and the efficient use of the robotized manufacturing plants. The principal characteristics of the XS-SIFIP program are presented, which is specifically established for investigating the governing attributes of the transport systems in the flexible manufacturing shops. Its modular structure is particularly suitable for expanding the dimensionality of the giustification reference knowledge, embedding the critical developments of the robotized factories in the area of the dynamical scheduling.
