LAMAS&SR 2024 - Last Call for Submissions (deadline November 17th)

International Workshop on Logical Aspects of Multi-Agent Systems and 
Strategic Reasoning
(Online, free participation)
11th December 2024

https://conferences-website.github.io/lamassr24/

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Logic and strategic reasoning play a central role in multi-agent 
systems. Logic can be used, for instance, to express the agents' 
abilities, knowledge, and objectives. Strategic reasoning refers to 
algorithmic methods that allow for the development of good behavior for 
the agents of the system. At the intersection, we find logics that can 
express the existence of strategies or equilibria and can be used to 
reason about them. The LAMAS&SR workshop merges two international 
workshops: LAMAS (Logical Aspects of Multi-Agent Systems), which focuses 
on all kinds of logical aspects of multi-agent systems from the 
perspectives of artificial intelligence, computer science, and game 
theory, and SR (Strategic Reasoning), devoted to all aspects of 
strategic reasoning in formal methods and artificial intelligence. Over 
the years the communities and research themes of both workshops got 
closer and closer, with a significant overlap in the participants and 
organizers of both events. For this reason, the two events have been 
unified under the same flag, formally joining the two communities. As 
such, the LAMAS&SR workshop aims to bring together researchers working 
on different aspects of either logic or strategic reasoning in computer 
science, artificial intelligence, and multi-agent
systems research, both from a theoretical and a practical viewpoint.

TOPICS OF INTEREST.

The topics covered by LAMAS&SR include, but are not limited to:

* Logical systems for specification, analysis, and reasoning about MAS
* Logic-based modeling of multi-agent systems
* Dynamical multi-agent systems
* Deductive systems and decision procedures for logics for MAS
* Development and implementation of methods for verification of MAS
* Logic-based tools for multi-agent systems
* Logics for reasoning about strategic abilities
* Formal aspects of mechanism design, verification, and synthesis
* Formal aspects of knowledge representation and reasoning
* Logical foundations of decision theory for multi-agent systems
* Strategic reasoning in formal verification
* Automata theory for strategy synthesis
* Applications and tools for cooperative and adversarial reasoning
* Robust planning and optimization in multi-agent systems
* Risk and uncertainty in multi-agent systems
* Quantitative aspects in strategic reasoning
* Neuro-symbolic AI for multi-agent systems

* November 17th, 2024: Paper submission deadline (extended)
* November 20th, 2024: Acceptance notification
* November 25th, 2024: Registration
* December 11th, 2024: LAMAS&SR 2024 workshop (online)

----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUBMISSION

Authors are invited to submit extended abstracts of up to 4 pages plus 1 
page for references only, in the format of the KR 2024 conference 
(KR24_authors_kit.zip). Both published and unpublished works are 
welcome. Submissions are subject to a single-blind review process 
(submissions should not be anonymous).
Although there will be no formal proceedings, accepted extended 
abstracts will be available on the workshop website. Submissions must be 
in PDF and will be handled via CMT, using the following link:

https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com/LAMASSR2024

Submissions from PC members are also allowed. Since the workshop will 
have informal proceedings, extended versions of the accepted papers can 
also be submitted elsewhere.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
PARTICIPATION

The workshop will be held online and registration will be free for all 
attendees.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

PROCEEDINGS

The informal proceedings will be available as a single PDF file from the 
workshop website. Extended and revised versions of the best papers 
presented at the workshop will be invited for a journal special issue.
