INMULLER@CNEDCU51.BITNET (02/10/89)
European Workshop on Modelling Autonomous Agents
in a Multi Agent World
FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR PAPERS
London, England
August 16-18, 1989
THE WORKSHOP
The purpose of the Workshop is to stimulate exchange and
discussions on the artificial intelligence models of an autonomous
agent having to interact with other autonomous entities. An
autonomous agent is defined as having his own goals, capabilities
and knowledge. The multi-agent problems arise when several
autonomous agents share a common environment. These problems
are due to limited ressources, shared or competing goals, etc.
Distributed Artificial Intelligence (DAI) occurs as a special case of
the problem but our main concern deals with complementary
aspects of DAI by allowing the agents to have unrelated goals. As
a consequence they have to deal with implicit and/or explicit
interactions among themselves. Leading experts of the domain will
be invited to give presentations. This Workshop is sponsored by
the CEE through a COST-13 project grant.
PAPER SUBMISSION
The contributed papers are required to mention both artificial
intelligence and autonomy. Three copies of the paper, no longer
than 5000 words should be mailed before May 1., 1989 . The title
page must include with the title, the authors their full address and
an abstract. The notification of acceptance will be made by the end
of May. Accepted papers are due by June 30., 1989.
