Explicit and high semantic level communications are not always the best approaches to coordinate the global system activity in the context of Multi-Agent Systems (MAS). Insect societies take advantage of a stigmergic way to communicate which does not require centralized control, but enable insects to coordinate their complex global tasks. In this paper, we describe and motivate a new approach to elaborate Complex Exchanges between Stigmergic Negotiating Agents (CESNA), for the critical resource sharing problem. We describe a negotiating network as a generic and suitable representation of the problem, along with its implemented behaviours. We present some promising results and attempt a first interpretation of how this decentralized system leads local behaviours to a global problem solution.
