The development of multi-agent systems introduces additional complexity to the system modeling, design and implementation, and consequently increases the probability of manifestation of heterogeneous exceptional situations, security pitfalls and so on. In addition, as the agent paradigm is devoted to the complex distributed system development, a large-scale multi-agent system encompasses multiple types of agents, each of them having distinct agency properties, and it needs to satisfy multiple stringent However, many existing agent-oriented solutions are far from ideal; in practice, they are often built in an ad-hoc manner and are error-prone, not generally applicable, not scalable, and not dynamic. The main goal of this workshop is to bring together

Topics of Interest |
The workshop is intended to cover wide ranges of topics of software engineering for large-scale multi-agent systems, from theoretical foundations to empirical studies. 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 large-scale multi-agent systems. We welcome the submission of papers in all aspects of agent-multi software engineering, including (but are not restrict to) the following:
