Call For Papers | |||||||||||||||
The Blue Sky Ideas special track is intended to present and provoke visionary ideas, long-term challenges, new research opportunities, and debate. It serves as an incubator for innovative, risky, and provocative research directions, and aims to provide a forum for publishing and presenting these without being constrained by the result-oriented standards followed in the review process of the main track of the conference. Research visions and ideas can cross disciplines, envisioning new directions relevant for Agents and advancing Multi-Agent Systems research through interdisciplinary viewpoints.
We encourage papers to reflect on the future of the research area and its community within the broader AI and computing landscape. We invite submissions that focus on novel, overlooked, or under-represented application areas to which agent research may contribute; potential paths for agent research to contribute to the state of the art in other AI and computing areas and the other way around; unexplored theoretical grounds for agent research. Overall, we aim at papers that help guide the agent community to achieve in the coming years a leading position within AI and computing research. Submission link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=aamas25bluesky === Important Dates === Abstract submission: December 10, 2024 (at 23:59 anywhere on Earth) Paper submission: December 15, 2024 (at 23:59 anywhere on Earth) Rebuttal period: January 10-15, 2025 Author notification: January 31, 2025 Camera-ready submission: Feb 19, 2025 === Evaluation Criteria === Reviewers will assess papers based on the following criteria: Are the ideas presented of interest to members of the Agents and MAS research communities? Do the ideas push forward the envelope of Agents/MAS application into the future? How much are the ideas visionary (vs. state of the art), novel, or out of the box? Are the ideas motivated and grounded in a solid understanding of the existing state-of-the-art and older foundational research/theory? Do the ideas consider relatively new research ideas (e.g. published in the last 3 years)? How deep and wide is the envisioned impact of the ideas on the research agenda in the Agents and MAS communities? How deep and wide is the envisioned impact on the intended beneficiaries of the ideas presented, including practical considerations? Are the ideas presented in a clear and rigorous way? How strong is the level of critical reflection applied in the exploration of these ideas? === Submission === Submissions are limited to 4 pages in length in the AAMAS 2025 format, with any additional pages containing only bibliographic references. The formatting instructions are the same as for the AAMAS 2025 main track. Accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings and will be presented orally at the conference. The Blue Sky Ideas track follows the same policies as the main track. Submissions must be original, reviewing is double-blind, and at least one author of each accepted paper will be required to register for the conference by the early registration deadline with the intention of presenting the paper at the conference.
