PAAMS 2014
12th International Conference on
Practical Applications of Agents and Multiagent Systems
University of Salamanca (Spain) 4th-6th June, 2014
www.paams.net
*******************************************************************************************************
Research on Agents and Multi-Agent Systems has matured during the last
decade and many effective applications of this technology are now
deployed. PAAMS provides an international forum to present and discuss
the latest scientific developments and their effective applications, to
assess the impact of the approach, and to facilitate technology
transfer. PAAMS started as a local initiative, but has since grown to
become THE international yearly platform to present, to discuss, and to
disseminate the latest developments and the most important outcomes
related to real-world applications. It provides a unique opportunity to
bring multi-disciplinary experts, academics andpractitioners together to
exchange their experience in the development and deployment of Agents
and Multi-Agent Systems.
PAAMS intends to bring together researchers and developers from industry
and the academic world to report on the latest scientific and technical
advances on the application of multi-agent systems, to discuss and
debate the major issues, and to showcase the latest systems using agent
based technology. It will promote a forum for discussion on how
agent-based techniques, methods, and tools help system designers to
accomplish the mapping between available agent technology and
application needs. Other stakeholders should be rewarded with a better
understanding of the potential and challenges of the agent-oriented
approach.
