*Apologies for cross-posting*

 Dear colleagues,
 Please consider submitting a paper to EUMAS-2020, the 17th European
Conference on Multi-Agent Systems!

******************************************************************************************
17th EUROPEAN CONFERENCE ON MULTI-AGENT SYSTEMS
EUMAS 2020
April 22-23, Thessaloniki, Greece
https://eumas2020.csd.auth.gr/eumas2020/
******************************************************************************************

---------------------------
AIMS AND SCOPE
---------------------------

In the last two decades, we have seen a significant increase of interest in
agent-based computing. This field is now set to become one of the key
intelligent systems technologies in the 21st century. The aim of the EUMAS
series is to provide a forum for academics and practitioners in Europe at
which current research and application issues are presented and discussed.

EUMAS 2020, the 17th instalment of the conference series, follows the
tradition of previous editions (Oxford 2003, Barcelona 2004, Brussels 2005,
Lisbon 2006, Hammamet 2007, Bath 2008, Agia Napa 2009, Paris 2010,
Maastricht 2011, Dublin 2012, Toulouse 2013, Prague 2014, Athens 2015,
Valencia 2016, Evry 2017, Bergen 2018), and aims to encourage and support
activity in the research and development of multi-agent systems, in
academic and industrial efforts.

The conference aspires to be the primary European forum for researchers
interested in the theory and practice of autonomous agents and multi-agent
systems.  EUMAS enables researchers to meet, present challenges,
preliminary and mature research results in an open and informal
environment. To attract students as well as experienced researchers,
preliminary as well as mature work, EUMAS 2020 offers three submission
types and formal proceedings. Also, we will be working hard to arrange for
the post-publication of selected papers in the form of a special issue of a
high-quality journal in the area.

EUMAS 2020 is a designated event of the European Association of Multi-Agent
Systems (EURAMAS): http://www.euramas.org <http://www.euramas.org/>

- Action and Planning

SUBMISSIONS
---------------------

EUMAS 2020 welcomes both original, unpublished papers, and papers that have
been recently published in a relevant conference or journal.

We offer three types of submissions:

(1) *Full original papers* of 12 to 15 pages, describing work that has not
been previously published, accepted for publication, nor is currently under
review by another conference or journal.

(2) *Short original papers* of 6 to 8 pages reporting on views, ambitions
or work in progress that has not been previously published, accepted for
publication, or is not currently under review by another conference or
journal.

(3) *Published papers* up to 15 pages reporting on interesting and relevant
work that has been published (or accepted for publication) in the last 18
months.

Each submission will be peer-reviewed. All submissions should be formatted
according to Springer's LNCS format. For templates and instructions for
authors, see  http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html . We request
the submission of title and abstract prior to paper submission to support
the tight schedule of reviewing. Authors must submit their abstracts and
papers through the EUMAS 2020 Easychair submission site
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=eumas2020.
