| − | | |
| − | INTRODUCTION
| |
| − | | |
| − | AAMAS is the leading scientific conference for research in autonomous
| |
| − | agents and multiagent systems. The AAMAS conference series was
| |
| − | initiated in 2002 by merging highly respected individual conferences:
| |
| − | - the International Conference on Multi-Agent Systems (ICMAS);
| |
| − | - the International Workshop on Agent Theories, Architectures, and
| |
| − | Languages (ATAL);
| |
| − | - the International Conference on Autonomous Agents (AA).
| |
| − | The aim of the joint conference is to provide a single, high-profile,
| |
| − | internationally respected archival forum for scientific research in
| |
| − | the theory and practice of autonomous agents and multiagent
| |
| − | systems. See http://www.ifaamas.org for more information.
| |
| − | | |
| − | AAMAS-09 is the Eighth conference in the AAMAS series, following
| |
| − | enormously successful previous conferences at Bologna, Italy (2002),
| |
| − | Melbourne, Australia (2003), New York, USA (2004), Utrecht, The
| |
| − | Netherlands (2005), Hakodate, Japan (2006), Honolulu, USA (2007) and
| |
| − | Estoril, Portugal (2008). AAMAS-09 will be held at the Europa Congress
| |
| − | Center, Budapest, Hungary.
| |
| − | | |
| − | INFORMATION FOR AUTHORS
| |
| − | | |
| − | AAMAS-09 encourages the submission of *original* papers covering
| |
| − | theoretical, experimental, methodological, and application issues in
| |
| − | autonomous agents and multiagent systems. Authors are discouraged to
| |
| − | submit papers describing work that has already been published in
| |
| − | previous AAMAS workshops with post-proceedings publications and/or
| |
| − | published as short papers in previous AAMAS proceedings, unless that
| |
| − | the authors *clearly* demonstrate significant new content with respect to
| |
| − | the previous publication.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The main theme of AAMAS-09, based on feedback from previous
| |
| − | conferences, will be reinforcing the rich panorama of
| |
| − | *interconnections* in the field. We encourage the community, and the
| |
| − | authors in particular, to reflect about their work not as belonging to
| |
| − | just a niche in a long list of topics, but rather as a point in an
| |
| − | abstract topological space defined by three complementary axes: (i)
| |
| − | the *focus* of the work contribution being presented, (ii) the
| |
| − | *description level* of the contribution and, (ii) the intellectual
| |
| − | *inspiration source* of the approach used in the research.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Every paper will be evaluated appropriately with respect to each of
| |
| − | these three axes. Moreover, the use of this topological space will
| |
| − | help this year and future AAMAS conference organizers to better stress
| |
| − | some particular points in this space to be highlighted in the program,
| |
| − | as it was the case of the special tracks presented in AAMAS-08 and
| |
| − | will be the case of the special areas in AAMAS-09.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | DESCRIPTION LEVEL AXE
| |
| − | | |
| − | AAMAS-09 encourages the submission of papers in several descriptive
| |
| − | styles: (i) theoretical, (ii) experimental
| |
| − | (architecture/system-oriented), (iii) methodologies/languages
| |
| − | (design/software engineering/programming-oriented), and (iv)
| |
| − | applications. Every paper should make clear its contribution to the
| |
| − | AAMAS field, place itself in the context of relevant related work, and
| |
| − | evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of its approach.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Theoretical papers should make clear the significance and
| |
| − | application-relevance of the results to the AAMAS community.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Experimental papers should address broad issues in the context of
| |
| − | autonomous agents or multi-agent systems architectures or performance
| |
| − | rather than isolated generic capabilities (such as general planning or
| |
| − | learning).
| |
| − | | |
| − | Methodological and language papers should propose advances in MAS
| |
| − | analysis/design methodologies, process and process models for
| |
| − | agent-oriented software development, frameworks for MAS specific
| |
| − | properties (like cooperation, coordination etc...), agent verification
| |
| − | and validation techniques/tools, and multi-agent programming
| |
| − | languages, deployment platforms and development tools.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Application papers should make clear both their scientific and
| |
| − | technical contributions, and their practical strengths and weaknesses.
| |
| − | | |
| − | INSPIRATION SOURCE AXE
| |
| − | | |
| − | AAMAS-09 welcomes papers from many intellectual approaches, including
| |
| − | artificial intelligence, distributed systems, economics,
| |
| − | social/management sciences, (multi-)robotics, and
| |
| − | biologically-inspired approaches.
| |
| − | | |
| − | FOCUS AXE
| |
| − | | |
| − | Broadly speaking, the AAMAS community-specific topics of interest are
| |
| − | focussed in individual agents, their environment, their interactions,
| |
| − | and their social/organizational structure.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Agent Focus: contributions are focussed on the elements for
| |
| − | structuring/defining/analyzing individual processing entities:
| |
| − | - agent architectures
| |
| − | - agent reasoning/deliberation/decision mechanisms
| |
| − | - agent perception and action
| |
| − | - believable agents
| |
| − | - believable agents
| |
| − | - agents models of emotion, motivation, personality, etc.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Environment Focus: contributions are focussed on the elements for
| |
| − | structuring/defining/analyzing the the external world (including
| |
| − | humans) and its information exchange with the processing entities:
| |
| − | - environmmental entities
| |
| − | - agent-human interaction
| |
| − | - interface agents
| |
| − | | |
| − | Interaction Focus: contributions are focussed on the elements for
| |
| − | structuring/defining/analyzing the information and control exchange
| |
| − | between the processing entities
| |
| − | - agent communication languages
| |
| − | - interaction protocols
| |
| − | - ontological / semantic interactions

| − | - argumentation theories
| |
| − | - coordination mechanisms
| |
| − | - multi-agent planning and learning
| |
| − | - reputation and trust
| |
| − | - privacy and security
| |
| − | | |
| − | Social/Organizational Structure Focus: costributions are focussed
| |
| − | on elements for structuring/defining/analyzing the identity and
| |
| − | properties of multiple processing entities
| |
| − | - groups and teams
| |
| − | - norms and normative behavior
| |
| − | - commitments
| |
| − | - autonomy
| |
| − | - organizations and institutions
| |
| − | - organizational planning/learning
| |
| − | - organizational reputation and trust
| |
| − | - coalition formation
| |
| − | - open systems
| |
| − | | |
| − | Comprehensive/Cross-cutting Focus: contributions dealing with all or
| |
| − | more than one of the previous focus
| |
| − | - complete applications demonstrating several different significant foci
| |
| − | - evaluation techniques
| |
| − | - ethical and legal issues
| |
| − | - standardization efforts in industry and commerce
| |
| − | - meta-papers (on the state of agent research, on the conference, etc.)
| |
| − | | |
| − | SPECIAL AREAS
| |
| − | | |
| − | Particularly this year, we are strongly encouraging papers that focus on some
| |
| − | of the issues located at the topological space described above:
| |
| − | | |
| − | Inspiration source axe:
| |
| − | - (Multi-)Robotics
| |
| − | - Social Sciences
| |
| − | | |
| − | Description level axe
| |
| − | - Methodologies/languages
| |
| − | - Applications
| |
| − | | |
| − | Focus axe
| |
| − | - (Virtual) Agents
| |
| − | - Social/Organizational Structure
| |
| − | | |
| − | In addition to conventional conference papers, AAMAS-09 will also
| |
| − | include a demonstration track for work focusing on implemented
| |
| − | systems, software, or robot prototypes; and an industry track for
| |
| − | descriptions of industrial applications of agents. The submission
| |
| − | processes for the demonstration and industry tracks will be separate
| |
| − | from the main paper submission process.
| |
| − | | |
| − | SUBMISSION DETAILS
| |
| − | | |
| − | This year the conference is soliciting regular papers (8 pages) and
| |
| − | extended abstracts (2 pages). Extended abstracts are encouraged as a
| |
| − | mechanism for the timely reporting of interesting but preliminary
| |
| − | work, that may not as yet have the level of evaluation or detail that
| |
| − | would be expected for a regular paper. The program chairs may, at
| |
| − | their discretion, accept papers that were submitted as regular papers
| |
| − | as extended abstracts, if the authors have explicitly agreed to this
| |
| − | when registering their papers.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Accepted regular papers will receive a slot for oral presentation in
| |
| − | the conference. In addition, both regular and extended abstracts will
| |
| − | be presented in poster sessions and appear in the conference
| |
| − | proceedings.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Reviews will be double blind, therefore authors are requested to avoid
| |
| − | including anything that can be used to reveal their
| |
| − | identity. Submissions will be peer reviewed rigorously and evaluated
| |
| − | on the basis of adherence, originality, soundness, significance,
| |
| − | presentation, understanding of the state of the art, and overall
| |
| − | quality of their technical contribution. More details about the review
| |
| − | process can be found in the conference page.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Authors should refer to the conference page to download the adequate
| |
| − | paper formats and the instructions to access the Confmaster system.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Full instructions and style files are now available, and submission
| |
| − | will be possible from 20th September onwards.
