THE THIRD EUROPEAN WORKSHOP ON MULTI-AGENT SYSTEMS
Flemish Academic Center for Science and the Arts, Brussels, Belgium
7th and 8th December, 2005

----------------------------------------------------------------
INTRODUCTION
In the last 15 years we have seen a significant increase of interest in
agent-oriented technology. This field is now set to become one of the key
technologies in the 21st century and will underpin much of the next
generation of computing that seeks to address issues in Ambient
Intelligence, Pervasive and Ubiquitous Computing, Complex Systems, Grid
Computing, Services Oriented Computing, Semantic Web and many other areas.
It is therefore crucial that both academics and industrialists within
Europe have access to a forum at which current research and application
issues are presented and discussed.
The aim of this third European Workshop on Multi-Agent Systems is to
encourage and support activity in the research and development of
multi-agent systems, in academic and industrial European efforts.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
Multi-agent systems are computational systems in which agents cooperate or
compete with others to achieve some collective task. Topics of interest for
the workshop therefore include, but are not limited to:
Research axis
- Action and Planning ,
- Adaptation and Learning,
- Agents and Complex Systems,
- Agent Models and Architectures,
- Agent Oriented Software Engineering
- Agent Platforms
- Agent Programming Languages
- Artificial social systems:
conventions, norms, institutions; trust and
reputation; fraud
- Autonomy
- Cognitive Models
- Communication, protocols
- Coalitions
- Cooperation
- Coordination
- Development Tools
- E-Institutions
- Emotion
- Environment of MAS
- Models: logical, economic, game theory,..
- Multi-agent simulation and modelling
- Negotiation and argumentation
- Ontologies
- Reactivity, Proactivity
- Robotics
- Standards
- Self-organising systems and emergent organisations
- Theories of Agency
MAS dedicated to: Ambient Intelligence, Grid Computing, Pervasive
Computing, Ubiquitous Computing, P2P Computing, Semantic Web, Web Services
MAS Applications: Computational biology, E-commerce, E-government,
Healthcare, Supply chaining, Traffic management...
