CALL FOR PAPERS

IJCAI-09 Workshop on Trading Agent Design and Analysis (TADA-09)

July 13, 2009, Pasadena, California, USA

http://tada2009.ecs.soton.ac.uk

Overview
----------
Trading agents have become a prominent application area in Artificial
Intelligence because of their potential benefits in electronic commerce,
and because they present a stiff challenge to models of rational
decision-making. A wide variety of trading scenarios and agent
approaches has been studied, creating a broad and rich research area.
This workshop will focus on the design and evaluation of trading agents.
Papers on trading agent architectures, decision-making algorithms,
theoretical analysis, empirical evaluations of agent strategies in
negotiation scenarios, and game-theoretic analyses, are all within the
scope of the workshop.

This workshop will be held in conjunction with the 2009 Trading Agent
Competition (TAC-09), with finals held during IJCAI-09, but paper
submissions need not be directly related to TAC. In fact, we encourage
submissions related to other trading scenarios.
