<p class="MsoNormal">== Final Deadline Extension Announcement==<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Due to numerous extension requests, we are setting a <b>final submission deadline</b> for COINE 2025. The new and
<b>firm</b> deadline is <b>February 25, 2025</b> (Anywhere on Earth).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We encourage all authors to finalize and submit their work by this date, as no further extensions will be granted.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you for your interest and contributions. We look forward to your submissions!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">== Overview ==<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The growing pervasiveness of “open systems” raises a range of challenges and opportunities for developing technologies in the area of autonomous agents and multi-agent systems (MAS). In open MAS, artificial and human autonomous agents,
their modes of interaction and the pursued goal of the system may change over time. The view of coordination and control has to be expanded to consider not only an agent-centric perspective but societal and organization-centric views as well. Moreover, in
the case of open multi-agent systems, the autonomy of the agents can work against the effectiveness of the system and the society. There is therefore a need for tools and techniques for articulating interactions in order to make MAS more effective in attaining
collective goals, aligning agent behaviors with shared human values, and more trustworthy, predictable and understandable for humans.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Coordination, organizations, institutions, norms and ethics are five key governance elements for the regulation of open multi-agent systems. The goal of the COINE workshop is to bring together researchers in autonomous agents and multi-agent
systems working on the scientific and technological aspects of social coordination, organizational theory, normative MAS, artificial or electronic institutions, and agents aware of norms, policies, and ethics.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We invite submissions that address any of the following aspects:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> - Mathematical, logical, computational, philosophical, legal, and pragmatic issues related to the issues above<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> - Modeling, animation and simulation techniques for open MAS<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> - Tools, prototypes and actual working systems<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> - Topics investigating the relationship between COINE and the rapidly <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> evolving AI landscape (e.g., including LLMs and Generative AI)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> - Topics exploring the value-aligned problems within MAS in the COINE domain<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> - Experimental investigation of the effectiveness of COINE technologies<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> - Challenging or innovative ideas relevant to the field<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">== Submission Guidelines ==<br>
We solicit three types of papers in the LNCS format (<a href="https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines" title="https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines">https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines</a>):<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> - Full research papers (16 pages)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> - Short research papers (10 pages) – These 'early-innovation' papers are work-in-progress papers and these will be reviewed with an emphasis on novelty/originality of the idea.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> - Blue sky ideas (up to 16 pages) – These papers have the same scope of the blue sky ideas track of AAMAS 2025 (see <a href="https://aamas2025.org/index.php/conference/calls/call-for-blue-sky-ideas/" title="https://aamas2025.org/index.php/conference/calls/call-for-blue-sky-ideas/">https://aamas2025.org/index.php/conference/calls/call-for-blue-sky-ideas/</a>),
focusing on the COINE topics<br>
