<div class="ContentPasted0">Description</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">===========</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">Research on Agents and Multi-Agent Systems has matured during the last decade and many</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">effective applications of this technology are now deployed. SARL-24 provides an</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">international forum to present and discuss the latest scientific developments and</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">their effective applications, to assess the impact of the approach, and to facilitate</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">technology transfer.</div>
<div><br class="ContentPasted0">
</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">SARL workshop was born with the SARL agent programming language, but the scientific results</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">presented in SARL-24 are not restricted to SARL; other languages and agent platforms may</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">be presented.</div>
<div><br class="ContentPasted0">
</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">SARL aims at providing the fundamental abstractions for dealing with concurrency,</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">distribution, interaction, decentralization, reactivity, autonomy and dynamic</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">reconfiguration. These high-level features are now considered as the major</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">requirements for an easy and practical implementation of modern complex software</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">applications. We are convinced that the agent-oriented paradigm holds the keys to</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">effectively meet these features. Considering the variety of existing approaches and</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">meta-models in the field of agent-oriented engineering and more generally multi-agent</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">systems, our approach remains as generic as possible and highly extensible to easily</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">integrate new concepts and features.</div>
<div><br class="ContentPasted0">
</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">The goal of SARL-24 is to provide a place where the different points of view on the</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">modeling and the simulation with agent platforms and agent programming languages may be</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">discussed.</div>
<div><br class="ContentPasted0">
</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">SARL-24 will be held in Hasselt, Belgium (April 23 - 25, 2024) in conjunction with the</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">15th International Conference on Ambient Systems, Networks, and Technologies (ANT 2024).</div>
