Special Issue on Multidisciplinary Perspectives of Agent-based Systems

http://www.sciepub.com/journal/AJSS/SpecialIssueCallForPapers#.Ue99KNKgJAI

This special issue will focus on the integration of agents and other
well-known techniques to build intelligent and autonomous systems.
Scientific research and practice in agent-based systems consists in
building more robust computational frameworks and models which otherwise
would be elusive using matured modeling and implementation techniques. This
special issue aims to address the gamut of the application areas of agent
technology, the most challenging problems in building such systems, the
underlying principles governing their design and the major directions for
future developments in this field. The purpose of this issue is to provide
the latest research based on the first-hand experience, observations, and
knowledge of scholars, educators and practitioners in the field of
agent-based systems. The submitted articles and case studies are expected
to highlight the added value of using agents in various connected domains,
such as: e-education, e-health, e-business, data mining, adaptive systems
and so on.

Graduate, postgraduate students, decision makers and researchers in private
sectors, universities, and industries are encouraged to submit articles,
following the submission procedure laid down by the“American Journal of
Systems and Software”.
All submitted articles will be peer reviewed on a double-blind basis. All
efforts will be made to conduct rigorous and fast peer review to
effectively meet the deadlines.
