PROMAS 2010 — Call for Participation 8th International Workshop on Programming Multi-Agent Systems AAMAS 2010, Toronto, ON (Canada) — Tuesday 11 May 2010 Source: e-mail call from Peter Novak <peter.novak@fel.cvut.cz>, Wed, 10 Mar 2010 23:50:56 +0100 The Eighth International Workshop on Programming Multi-Agent Systems ProMAS 2010 in co-location with The Ninth International Joint Conference on Autonomous Agents & Multi-Agent Systems AAMAS 2010 http://agents.felk.cvut.cz/promas2010/ May 11th 2010, Toronto, Canada *********************************************************************** *** ABOUT The ProMAS workshop series aims to address the theoretical and practical programming issues related to developing and deploying multi-agent systems. In particular, ProMAS aims to address how multi-agent systems designs or specifications can be effectively implemented. In its previous editions, ProMAS constituted an invaluable occasion bringing together leading researchers from both academia and industry to discuss issues on the design of programming languages and tools for multi-agent systems. In particular, the workshop promotes the discussion and exchange of ideas concerning the techniques, concepts, requirements, and principles that are important for multi-agent programming technology. These include the theory and applications of agent programming languages, the verification and analysis of agent systems, as well as the implementation of social structure in agent-based systems (e.g. roles within organizations, coordination and communication in multi-agent systems). *** INVITED SPEAKERS * Sarit Kraus, University of Maryland, USA/Bar Ilan University, Israel * Gregory O'Hare, University College Dublin, Ireland (titles to be announced later at the workshop website) *** PROGRAMME Invited Talk 1: Gregory O’Hare: TBA Session 1: Agents & Environments/Organisations * Hugo Carr, Alexander Artikis and Jeremy Pitt: Software Support for Organised Adaptation * Alessandro Ricci, Andrea Santi and Michele Piunti: Action and Perception in Multi-Agent Programming Languages: From Exogenous to Endogenous Environments * Tristan Behrens, Jürgen Dix, Koen Hindriks, Mehdi Dastani, Rafael Bordini, Jomi Hübner, Alexander Pokahr and Lars Braubach: An Interface for Agent-Environment Interaction Invited Talk 2: Sarit Kraus: TBA Session 2: Agent Programming * Howell Jordan and Rem Collier: Evaluating Agent-Oriented Programs: Towards Multi-Paradigm Metrics Session 3: Agent Reasoning * M. Birna van Riemsdijk and Neil Yorke-Smith: Towards Reasoning with Partial Goal Satisfaction in Intelligent Agents * Joost Broekens, Koen Hindriks and Pascal Wiggers: Reinforcement Learning as Heuristic for Action-Rule Preferences Demo Session Reflection Session The reflection session consists of a presentation followed by a discussion among participants. The presentation provides a concise overview of the state of art in multi-agent programming and related development tools, pitfalls, problems, perspectives, milestones, activities, and possible collaboration and community initiatives. *** REGISTRATION We invite you to register for the workshop through the AAMAS 2010 registration website located at http://www.cse.yorku.ca/AAMAS2010/#content=registration.
