Eighth European Workshop on Multi-Agent Systems (EUMAS 2010)
Paris, France, 16th-17th December 2010

http://www.lipade.fr/eumas10/

OVERVIEW

Agent technology has had an expanding impact and depth over the past two
decades and more, influencing and being influenced by other disciplines while
making a distinct research contribution with novel solutions to industrial
problems. It is crucial, therefore, that both academics and industrialists
within Europe have access to a forum at which current research and application
issues are presented and discussed. Following in the tradition of past EUMAS
(Oxford 2003, Barcelona 2004, Brussels 2005, Lisbon 2006, Hammamet 2007, Bath
2008, Aiya Napa 2009), the aim of the Eighth European Workshop on Multi-Agent
Systems is to encourage and support activity in the research and development of
multi-agent systems. This workshop is primarily intended as a European forum
at which researchers, and those interested in activities relating to research,
in the area of autonomous agents and multi-agent systems can meet, present
(potentially preliminary) research results, problems, and issues in an open and
informal but academic environment.

SUBMISSIONS

Submission of papers describing relevant preliminary or completed work are
invited. EUMAS welcomes papers that are original, or are under submission,
will be presented or have already been presented at relevant international
conferences. The workshop is intended as a forum for interaction and
discussion, and we especially invite submissions by students, who can receive
valuable feedback from this discussion-oriented focus. Preliminary student work
is welcome, as long as it possesses sufficient substance for serving as a basis
for discussion.

All submissions should be formatted using Springer's LNCS style and have a
maximum of 15 pages. We request the submission of title and abstract prior to
the paper submission, to help meet the tight reviewing schedule. Further
submission details on how to submit abstracts and papers will appear soon on
the page below.

The workshop has no formal proceedings; it is intended primarily as a forum for
interaction and discussion. The workshop will provide proceedings to
registrants electronically (on a USB stick). Depending on the quality, we
intend to invite a selection of extended versions of original (not previously
published) submissions to be included in relevant journal special issues.
