Dagstuhl Seminar 08361 “Programming Multi-Agent Systems”
Schloss Dagstuhl, Wadern, Germany, 31/08/2008–05/09/2008

Intelligent agents and multi-agent systems (MAS) play an important role in today’s software development, offering relevant abstractions for the engineering of complex systems. One of the main challenges of the MAS community in recent years has been to combine the existing practical tools and theoretical approaches in order to provide practitioners with mature programming languages and platforms. The aim of this seminar was to bring together researchers from both academia and industry to bridge this gap and identify interesting lines of research within multi-agent systems. The seminar proceedings appeared as Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8361, and the best contributions were collected in a special issue of Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems (23(2), 2011).
