SELMAS 2006 Call for Papers
Goal
The SELMAS 2006 paper track's goal is to provide a forum for
presenting the current state and future direction of research
in software engineering for multi-agent systems.
Submissions
CLOSED: Paper Track Submissions (via MyReview System)
Motivation
Dependability of a computing system is its ability to deliver service
that can be justifiably trusted. Making large-scale complex systems
maximally dependable is still an open issue. Without adequate development
techniques and methods, supporting particularly such dependability means
as fault avoidance, fault tolerance, fault removal and fault forecasting,
such systems will not be sufficiently robust, trustworthy, secure, safe
and extensible.
Scope
Submitted papers should have a special emphasis on the impact of the
agent technology in the development of large dependable systems.
However, the workshop is intended to cover a wide range of topics on
software engineering for large-scale multi-agent systems, from theoretical
foundations to empirical studies. We also welcome the submission of papers
in all aspects of agent-based software engineering, including the following
(but not limited to):
- Aspect-oriented techniques to MAS development
- Comparative studies between the agent-oriented and other paradigms
- Coordination architectures, infrastructures, and tools
- Dependable agent systems
- Design patterns, design principles, and architectural styles
- Domain-specific languages
- Exception handling and fault-tolerance techniques
- Experiments and case studies
- Formal methods for MAS
- Frameworks and software architectures
- Governance for MAS
- Methodologies for agent-oriented analysis and design
- Mobility and security issues
- Modeling languages
- Ontologies for MAS
- Pitfalls and learned lessons in the construction of large MAS
- Reflective software architectures
- Requirements engineering
- Software development environments
- Software engineering techniques for resource-bounded MAS
- Software reliability engineering
- Testing and metrics
- Trustability issues
- Verification and validation techniques
Submission Structure
We encourage authors to present novel ideas, critique of existing work,
and practical studies and experiments, which demonstrate how software
engineering techniques can assist the development of multi-agent systems.
Your paper must conform to the ICSE 2006 Format and Submission Guidelines
and should not exceed 07 ( seven ) pages, including all text, references, appendices, and figures.
