IMPORTANT DATES

Paper Submission Deadline: 15th July 2023 (AoE, UTC-12)

SCOPE

EUMAS 2023 is an EURAMAS designated 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 environment. EUMAS 2023 features formal
proceedings published as part of the Lecture Notes in Computer Science
(LNCS) series of Springer**

Phd Students (and also former PhD students that completed their PhD in 
2022 or 2023)
are invited to submit a short paper to EUMAS 2023.
The accepted abstracts will be presented during the EUMAS 2023 PhD Day
(which will be held on the 12th or 13th of September, the exact day TBA),
and will be included in EUMAS 2023 proceedings.

PhD students that recently started can submit a paper in which they
specify their subject and research plans.
Students at half of their PhD can submit a paper describing their early
results and future research directions.
Students that are finishing or have recently completed their PhD can 
submit a
short paper given an overview of their thesis and its main results.

All PhD day authors will give a highlight talk of their work (in 5
minutes) and then present it as a poster. There will be a best
presentation award (based on the talk and the poster), which will come
with a monetary prize.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Action and Planning – Adaptation and Learning – Agent Architectures –
Agent Programming Languages – Agent Development Methodologies and
Tools – Agent-Based Simulation – Agent Organizations and Institutions
– Agent-oriented Software Engineering – Agents and Complex Systems –
Applications of Multi-agent Systems – Argumentation – Automated
negotiation – Biologically inspired approaches – Cognitive Models –
Collective and Swarm Intelligence – Collective Intentionality –
Communication, Cooperation, and Coordination - Computational Social
Choice – Economic Models – Electronic Commerce – Ethical behavior of
multi-agent systems – Formal Modelling – Game-Theoretic Methods -
Human-Agent Interaction – Logics for Multi-Agent Systems – Logics for
Strategic Reasoning – Negotiation – Self-organization – Semantic Web
Agents - Social Networks – Socio-technical Systems – Theories of
Agency – Trust and Reputation – Verification – Virtual Agents –
Voting and Judgment Aggregation Models for multi-agent systems

All submissions will be peer-reviewed in a single-blind fashion.
Specifically, all submissions should not be anonymized. Submission
should have a single author and be at most 5 pages long, with 2 
additional page only for
references, and be formatted according to Springer’s LNCS format. For
