IAT 2012 provides a leading international forum to bring together
researchers and practitioners from diverse fields, such as computer
science, information technology, business, education, systems
engineering, and robotics, to (1) examine the design principles and
performance characteristics of various approaches in intelligent agent
technology, and (2) increase the cross-fertilization of ideas on the
development of autonomous agents and multi-agent systems among
different domains.  By encouraging idea-sharing and discussions on the
underlying logical, cognitive, physical, and sociological foundations
as well as the enabling technologies of intelligent agents, IAT 2012
will foster the development of novel paradigms and advanced solutions
in agent and multi-agent based computing.

IAT 2012 will be jointly held with the 2012 IEEE/WIC/ACM International
Conference on Web Intelligence (WI 2012) and co-locate with AMT'12,
BI'12, and ISMIS'12 as a Congress, a Special Event of the Alan Turing
Year (Centenary of Alan Turing's birth). Furthermore, WI-IAT 2012 will
include workshops providing in-depth background on subjects that are
of broad interest to Web intelligence and Intelligent Agent Technology
communities. The workshop programs will focus on new research
challenges, initiatives and applications.

The topics and areas include, but not limited to:
1) Autonomy-Oriented Computing (AOC)                 
2) Agent and Multi-Agent Systems Modeling 
3) Agent and Multi-Agent Systems Engineering
4) Autonomous Auctions and Negotiation
5) Autonomous Knowledge and Information Agents 
6) Coordination 
7) Distributed Problem Solving 
8) Applications

High-quality papers in all IAT related areas are solicited.  Paper
submissions should be limited to a maximum of 8 pages in the IEEE
2-column format.  The same format will be used for final camera-ready
papers (see the Author Guidelines at
http://www.computer.org/portal/web/cscps/formatting).

All submitted papers will be reviewed by the Program Committee on the
basis of technical quality, relevance, significance, and clarity.

Note that IAT 2012 will accept ONLY on-line submissions in PDF
format. Accepted papers will be published in the conference
proceedings by the IEEE Computer Society Press that is indexed by EI.
