ABC 2008 deadline approaching

[Paolo Torroni]

DEADLINE: 30 June 2008

Workshop on Agent Based Computing V  (ABC'08)
Wisla, Poland, October 20-22, 2008
http://2008.imcsit.org/?cont=88&type=page&page=69

Organized within the framework of the International Multiconference on 
Computer Science and Information Systems and co-located with the XXIV 
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 '08 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.

ABC Workshop 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
