Workshop on
Agent Based Computing IV
(ABC'07)
Wisla,
Poland, October 15-17, 2007
Organized within the framework of
the International Multiconference on Computer Science
and Information Systems and co-located with the XXIII
Autumn Meeting of the Polish Information Processing
Society.
Agent-based
computing has been hailed as the next significant
breakthrough in software development, with the potential
to affect many aspects of computer science, from
artificial intelligence to the technologies and models
of distributed computation. Agent-based systems are
capable of autonomous action in open,
dynamically-changing environments. Agents are currently
being applied in domains as diverse as business
information systems, computer games and interactive
cinema, information retrieval and filtering, user
interface design and industrial process control. The aim
of the ABC '07 is to bring together researchers and
developers from industry and academia in order to report
on the latest scientific and technical advances, discuss
and debate the major issues, and showcase the latest
systems.
The
special session welcomes submissions of original papers
concerning all aspects of software agents. Submissions
involving both implementation and theoretical issues are
encouraged.
Topics include but are
not limited to:
- Agent
architectures
- Agent-oriented
software engineering
- Agent-based
simulations
- Agent
benchmarking and performances
- Agent
communication, coordination and cooperation
- Agent
