EUMAS-2013
11th European Workshop on Multi-Agent Systems
12-13 December 2013, Toulouse, France
http://www.irit.fr/EUMAS2013/
In the last two decades, we have seen a significant increase of interest in agent-
based computing. This field is now set to become one of the key technologies in the
21st century. It is crucial 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, Agia Napa 2009,
Paris 2010, Mastricht 2011, Dublin 2012), the aim of this Eleventh European
Workshop on Multi-Agent Systems is to encourage and support activity in the
research and development of multi-agent systems, in academic and industrial
efforts. 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, could meet, present (potentially
preliminary) research results, problems, and issues in an open and informal but
academic environment. The scope of the event is defined as the scope of the
International Journal on Autonomous Agents & Multi-agent Systems (JAAMAS), the
International Conference on Autonomous Agents & Multi-agent Systems (AAMAS),
and the European Association for Multiagent Systems (EURAMAS).

SPECIAL SESSION OF LAMAS (LOGICAL ASPECTS OF MULTI-AGENT SYSTEMS)
The sixth LAMAS workshop (Logical Aspects of Multi-Agent Systems) will be
colocated
with
EUMAS-2013,
as
a
special
session.
(Seehttp://icr.uni.lu/lamas2012/cfp.html for the previous edition of the LAMAS
workshop). The submission of papers to the LAMAS special session is subject to the
same requirements as the submission of papers to the EUMAS-2013 normal track.
Topics of interest for the LAMAS special session include but are not limited to:
• Logical systems for specification, analysis, and reasoning about MAS,
• Modeling MAS with logic-based models,
• Deductive systems and decision procedures for logics for MAS,
• Development, complexity analysis, and implementation of algorithmic
methods for formal verification of MAS,
• Logic-based tools for MAS,
• Applications of logics in MAS.
SUBMISSION, CEUR PROCEEDINGS AND POST-PROCEEDINGS VOLUME
EUMAS-2013 welcomes both unpublished papers and papers that are under
submission or have been published in a relevant conference, workshop or journal.
We specially invite submissions by students that we think will receive valuable
feedback from the the discussion-oriented focus of the workshop. Preliminary
student work is welcome; however it has to possess sufficient substance for serving
as a discussion basis and therefore has to pass the review cycle in the same way as
other work. All submissions should be formatted using Springer LNCS style which is
available at http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html.
EUMAS-2013 solicits papers in two categories:
• Full research papers of 8 to 14 pages.
• Extended abstracts of 2 to 4 pages reporting an interesting work in progress
or providing system descriptions.
We request the submission of title and abstract prior the paper submission for
supporting the tight schedule of reviewing. The authors can submit their abstracts
and papers through the EUMAS 2013 Easychair submission site:
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=eumas2013
Full papers accepted at EUMAS-2013 that are not under submission and have not
been previously published in a different conference, workshop or journal will be
included in the CEUR workshop proceedings.
A post-proceedings volume published by Springer in the LNCS/LNAI series is
planned based on revised and extended versions of selected papers presented at
EUMAS-2013.
