<b>TLDR</b><b><br>
</b><b>=====</b><br>
<br>
AASG 2024 focuses on the role of autonomous agents and
multi-agent systems (MAS) in social challenges, such as
public health, sustainability, climate change and
conservation, and human rights. The goal is to identify new
MAS problems in societies, develop novel MAS solutions to
resolve social challenges, and learn from the real-world
deployment of MAS. <br>

<b>ABOUT AASG 2024</b><b><br>
</b><b>================</b><br>
<br>
We solicit papers (work-in-progress, or published works with
interesting novelty) in two categories:<br>
<br>
1. <b>Research papers</b> describing novel contributions in
resolving social challenges using multi-agent systems. Both
work-in-progress and recently published work will be
considered. Submissions describing recently published work
should clearly indicate the earlier venue and provide a link
to the published paper. Papers in this category should be at
most <b>8 pages</b> (in AAMAS format), with any number of
additional pages containing bibliographic references only.<br>
<br>
2. <b>Position papers</b> describing open problems or
neglected perspectives on the field, proposing ideas for
bringing MAS methods into a new application area, or
summarizing the focus areas of a group working on MAS for
social good. Papers in this category should be at most <b>4
pages</b>, with any number of additional pages containing
bibliographic references only.<br>
<br>
The submitted papers will be assessed based on their
novelty, technical quality, potential impact, and clarity of
writing. <b>Collaboration with NGOs and society
stakeholders that have first-hand knowledge of the topic
will be especially appreciated.</b><br>
<br>
This workshop has no archival proceedings, and the accepted
papers are allowed to be submitted to other conference
venues. Accepted submissions will have the option of being
posted online on the workshop website. For authors who do
not wish their papers to be posted online, please inform the
organizers. Accepted papers will be presented either as a
research talk or a poster. We also welcome papers accepted
at other venues to facilitate discussion. <br>
