                              About the EASSS 2018

******************************************************************************



The 20th European Agent Systems Summer School will be held at the department

of Data-Science and Knowledge Engineering of Maastricht University in the

Netherlands from June 18th till 22nd, 2018.



The EASSS-2018 will offer a rich program of both introductory and advanced

courses on a broad range of topics in the area of Autonomous Agents and

Multi-Agent Systems. The courses will be taught by leading researchers

in the field and are aimed at Masters and PhD students, but can be attended

by any interested researcher.



EASSS is organised under the auspices of EURAMAS, the European Association

for Multi-Agent Systems.



Since 1999, the annual European Agent Systems Summer School (EASSS) has

provided a highly successful forum for knowledge exchange between researchers

in the field of Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems. The previous

editions of EASSS took place in Gdansk (2017), Catania (2016), Barcelona

(2015), Chania (2014), London (2013), Valencia (2012), Girona (2011),

Saint-Etienne (2010), Turin (2009), Lisbon (2008), Durham (2007), Annecy

Maastricht is the oldest city in the Netherlands. Its oldest remains are more

than 2000 year old and pre-date the Roman settlement. The city has a beautiful

historic city centre with nice squares where you can eat and drink something.



There are different options for traveling to Maastricht. Maastricht has an

airport, named Maastricht-Aachen airport, with connection to a few places in

Europe. There is a bus going from the airport the train station of Maastricht.

Another possibility is Eindhoven airport, which has more connections to cities

in Europe. There is bus going from the airport to train station of Eindhoven.

There one can take the train to Maastricht, which takes one hour. It is also

possible to fly to Schiphol airport near Amsterdam, which is the main airport

in the Netherlands. The train from Schiphol to Maastricht takes two and a

half to three hours with a switch in Amsterdam central station or in Utrecht

central station. A last option by airplane is flying to Zaventem, the main

airport in Belgium near Brussels. The train from Zaventem to Maastricht

requires one and a half hours.



Maastricht has a train connection to the Netherlands and Belgium. When using

the German railways, it is recommended to take the train to Aachen and in

Aachen to take the bus to Maastricht. The bus requires less than one and a

half hours.
