About agents
English (USA)

The agents mailing list is appropriate for all aspects of agent R&D and applications. See the Wikipedia article on software agents for a general overview of the concept. The original agents mailing list was begun in 1994 by Ray Johnson, then at the Lockheed Palo Alto AI Center, and moved to UMBC in 1996, where it has been moderated by Tim Finin.

Archives of the mailing list from 2008 to the present are available here. A partial archive of early messages from 1994 to 1998 is available here

Specific topics of interest include the following: agent architectures, agent communication, agent learning, evolution, and adaptation, agent norms and trust, agent ontologies, agent-oriented software engineering, autonomic computing, autonomy, believable agents, cognitive agent models, cooperative distributed problem solving, electronic markets and institutions, embodied agents, emergent behavior, ethical and legal issues, FIPA standards, formal agent models, interface agents, MAS planning and learning, mechanism design, auctions, and game theory, mobile agents, multiagent systems, pervasive computing, agent-oriented robotics, simulation systems, and standardization efforts.

Only subscribers are allowed to post messages without the approval of the list moderator. Please do not send off-topic messages, commercial solicitations or spam to the list. Subscribers who do are subject to unsubscription. You can get more information about the list as well as manage subscriptions on the UMBC agents mailing list page.
