Paper provides the proposal for the architecture of a ldquonetworkrdquo of a new type which, on the basis of its properties, the authors called the ldquogeneralised artificial fishing netrdquo. Model of a production system incorporating the proposed network architecture is presented too. This model can be used to simulate events occurring in production systems. Works on the solution described in the paper are still in the initial phase, as software is being developed to test the proposed network.
