CALL FOR PAPERS
=======================================
11th Workshop on Agent Based Computing: from Model to Implementation
(ABC:MI'16)
Gdansk, Poland, 11 - 14 September, 2016

E-mail: abcmi2016 at fedcsis.org
We would like to cordially invite you to consider contributing a paper
to ABC:MI - held as a part of the Federated Conference on Computer
Science and Information Systems (FedCSIS 2016).
FedCSIS a yearly international multi-conference organized by the Polish
Information Processing Society (PTI) in technical cooperation with the
IEEE Region 8, IEEE Poland (Gdansk) Section Computer Society Chapter,
Poland Section Computational Intelligence Society Chapter, ACM Special
Interest Group on Applied Computing, Lodz ACM Chapter, European Alliance
for Innovation, Polish Operational and Systems
Research Society - POSRS, Eastern Cluster ICT Poland, Mazovia Cluster ICT.
The field of agent technology is rapidly maturing. One of key factors
that influence this process is the gathered body of knowledge that
allows in-depth reflection on the very nature of designing and
implementing agent systems. As a result, there is now significant
knowledge on how to design and implement them. There is also a deeper
understanding of the most important issues to be addressed in the
process. Therefore, on the top-most level a progress in development of
methodologies for design of agent-based systems can be seen.
Furthermore, these methodologies are usually supported by tools that
allow not only top level conceptualization but guide the process towards
implementation (e.g. by generating at least some code). Next, it can
seen that new languages for agent based systems are created, e.g. AML or
API Calculus. Separately, tools/platforms/environments that can be used
for design and implementation of agent systems have been through a
number of releases, eliminating problems and adding new, important
features. Resulting products are becoming truly robust and flexible.
Furthermore, open source products (e.g. JADE) are surrounded by user
communities, which often generate powerful add-on components, further
increasing value of existing solutions.
TOPICS
=======================================
The Workshop primarily focuses on all aspects of the process that leads
from the model of the problem domain to the actual agent-based solution.
These aspects will cover both principled approaches and established
practices of software engineering aimed at producing high quality
software. In this context, research into the application of agent-based
solutions to key challenges faced by software engineering (e.g.
reduction of costs and delivery times, coping with a larger diversity of
problems) will be of primary importance. ABC:MI Workshop welcomes
submissions of original papers concerning all aspects of software agent
engineering.
Topics include but are not limited to:
- Methodologies for design of agent systems
- Multi-agent systems product lines
- Modeling agent systems
- Agent architectures
- Agent-based simulations
- Simulating and verifying agent systems
- Agent benchmarking and performance measurement
- Agent communication, coordination and cooperation
- Organization and self-organization of agent systems
- Agent languages
- Agent learning and planning
- Agent mobility
- Agent modeling, calculi, and logic
- Agent security
- Agents and Service Oriented Computing
- Agents in the Semantic Web
- Applications and Experiences
PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION
