Preliminary Call for Papers
Workshop on Agent Based Computing IV (ABC'07) Wisla, Poland October 15-17, 2007 http://www.abc.imcsit.org/
organized within a framework of the International Multiconference on Computer Science and Information Technology (IMCSIT) http://www.imcsit.org/
Agent-based computing has been hailed as the next significant breakthrough in software development, with the potential to affect many aspects of computer science, from artificial intelligence to the technologies and models of distributed computation. Agent-based systems are capable of autonomous action in open, dynamically-changing environments. Agents are currently being applied in domains as diverse as business information systems, computer games and interactive cinema, information retrieval and filtering, user interface design and industrial process control. The aim of the ABC '07 is to bring together researchers and developers from industry and academia in order to report on the latest scientific and technical advances, discuss and debate the major issues, and showcase the latest systems.
The special session welcomes submissions of original papers concerning all aspects of software agents. Submissions involving both implementation and theoretical issues are encouraged.
Topics include but are not limited to:
* Agent architectures * Agent-oriented software engineering * Agent-based simulations * Agent benchmarking and performances * Agent communication, coordination and cooperation * Agent languages * Agent learning and planning * Agent mobility * Agent modeling, calculi, and logics * Agent security * Agents in the semantic web * Applications and Experiences * Simulating and verifying agent systems * Multi-Agent Systems in Applications o Disaster Management o E-commerce o Workflow management o Other areas
Paper Submission and Publication
* Papers will be refereed and accepted on the basis of their scientific merit and relevance to the workshop topics
* Papers presented at the symposium will be included into the Conference Proceedings and published on a CD (ISSN 1896-7094)
* Authors of selected papers accepted and presented during the ABC IV Workshops will be invited to submit extended versions of their contributions to a Special Issue of the International Journal of Intelligent Information and Database System (http://www.inderscience.com/browse/index.php?journalCODE=ijiids).
Important dates
