[agents] Seventh Technical Fora (TF7)

[Massimo Cossentino]

SEVENTH TECHNICAL FORA (TF7)
Paris, France
15 December 2010
Co-located with EUMAS 2010
http://grasia.fdi.ucm.es/tf2010/
 
The Technical Fora are informal arenas for discussion at which those interested in a particular area of multi-agent systems (see the list for this year below) share common problems, issues and results in an open manner, allowing the community to become aware of new developments, establish links with each other and to related disciplines, and encourage common actions to promote agent technology, such as through projects and standards.
 
The Technical Fora was initiated in 2004 by the AgentLink Network of Excellence. Then, each year, there was a meeting with different working groups: Rome, Italy 2004; Ljubljana, Slovenia 2005; Budapest, Hungary 2005; Lisboa, Portugal 2006; Hammamet, Tunisia 2007, Bath, UK, 2008. This year, the advisory board of EUMAS, the EUMAS 2010 chairs, and the seventh Technical Fora Chairs, propose to organise the next TFG meetings as a joint event
with EUMAS 2010.
 
We invite anyone interested in one of the topics of this year's for a to attend.  To keep track of numbers, we ask you to register your intent to attend.
 
***Closing Date for Registration: 10th December 2010***
 
TF7 will take place in Paris, France, 15 December 2010, co-located
with the 8th European Workshop on Multi-Agent Systems (EUMAS 2010).
Co-location will be handled by the organisers of both EUMAS 2010 and TF7 to maximise synergies between the two events. We therefore encourage TF7 participants to take advantage of the EUMAS 2010 scientific programme.
