Call for Papers
(with extended submission deadline)

Aims and Scope

Over its 16 years in existence, ACEC has focused on works that explore the adaptability, autonomy and intelligence of software agents for the collaboration across the enterprise. In 2019, organizers would like to continue to explore the research on agent-based computing, but they would also welcome works that leverage advanced adaptive techniques, non necessarily based on software agents. In addition to the traditional domain areas, i.e., Computer Supported Collaborative Work, Workflow and Supply Chain Management, Automation in Virtual Enterprises, and Automated Distributed Service Composition, ACEC is also interested in new adaptive techniques, e.g., Cloud Computing, Crowd-Sourcing, and Social Networking.

In addition to traditional papers, the forthcoming 17th episode of ACEC welcomes papers from two focus areas:

  *   Adaptive and Agent-based Services
  *   Adaptive Techniques for Organizational/Enterprise Use of Emerging Web Paradigms (Cloud, Crowd-sourcing, Mobile Apps)

Such two themes represent important areas where software agents can leverage their distributed nature, along with their proactive and autonomous characteristics, to provide solutions to complex problems, which are difficult to solve using traditional/existing technologies.


Topics of Interest

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

  *   Adaptive and/or agent-mediated workflow, supply chain, and virtual enterprises
  *   Methodologies, languages and tools to support agent collaboration
  *   Agent architectures and infrastructures for dynamic collaboration
  *   Adaptive and/or Agent-based service architectures and infrastructures
  *   Service Oriented Architectures (SOAs) based on agents
  *   Services for dynamic agent collaboration
  *   Agent-to-Human service interactions
  *   Autonomous, Adaptive and/or Agent-mediated service integration
  *   Organizational and enterprise systems that leverage the Web 2.0
  *   Adaptive and Agent-mediated cloud environments


Important Dates


  *   Paper submission: March 5th, 2019 (extended)
  *   Notification: March 15th, 2019
  *   Camera ready: April 5th, 2019
  *   Conference: June 12-14, 2019


Paper Submission

Papers should contain original contributions (not published or submitted elsewhere) and references to related state-of-the art work. Please submit your papers in PDF or PS format.

Papers up to 6 pages (including figures, tables and references) can be submitted. Papers should follow the IEEE format, which is single-spaced, two columns, 10pt Times/Roman font. Papers should include a title, the name and affiliation of each author, an abstract of up to 150 words and no more than eight keywords. All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed by a minimum of three program committee members. The accepted papers will be published in the post-conference proceedings (to be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press).

Authors of accepted papers must present their papers at the conference. At least one author for each accepted paper should register and attend WETICE 2019 to have the paper published in the proceedings.

The paper submission procedure is carried out using the EasyChair conference management system: http://home.ing.unisannio.it/wetice2019/?page_id=575
