Eighth European Workshop on Multi-Agent Systems (EUMAS 2010)
Paris, France, 16th-17th December 2010

http://www.lipade.fr/eumas10/

** EARLY REGISTRATION CLOSES ON 27th NOVEMBER **

Agent technology has had an expanding impact and depth over the past
two decades and more, influencing and being influenced by other
disciplines while making a distinct research contribution with novel
solutions to industrial problems.  This workshop is a European forum
at which researchers, and those interested in activities relating to
research, in the area of autonomous agents and multi-agent systems can
meet, present (potentially preliminary) research results, problems,
and issues in an open and informal but academic environment.

Registration for the workshop and details regarding accommodation are
available from the website.
