12th European Agent Systems Summer

Saint-Etienne, France

August 23rd - 27th, 2010



*Call for submissions to the Student Session*

*All students are cordially invited to participate in the Student Session of
EASSS'10.*



The European Agent Systems Summer School aims to offer a valuable forum for
knowledge exchange between various research groups in its field for the
benefit of students and researchers at both beginner and advanced level. The
success of the summer school series is essential not only for the mutual
benefit of research groups, but also in forming future generations of
researchers to maintain the excellence of Agents research and development in
Europe.



EASSS attracts about 100 students each year. The school provides a wide
range of state-of-the-art courses given by the most prominent researchers in
the area. A typical course has 4 hours in total and they are broad enough to
provide a general introduction to the chosen topic, whilst also covering the
most important contributions in depth. Courses are expected to take a wide
perspective of the research being done by various groups active in research
on the specific topic of the course.



Within this context, the Student Session is designed to encourage student
interaction and feedback from the tutors. By providing the students with a
conference-like setup, both in the presentation and in the review process,
students have the opportunity to prepare their own submission, go through
the selection process (peer review) and possibly present their work to
themselves and their interests to their fellow students as well as
internationally leading experts in the agent field, both from the
theoretical and the practical sector.



All submissions will be peer-reviewed and accepted paper submissions will be
assigned a 20 minute slot for presentation. Typically a presentation will
either detail the intended approach to a problem or ask a specific question,
directed at the audience. In addition, selected submission authors will be
given the opportunity to present their work in form of a poster that will be
displayed at EASSS'10. Moreover, all accepted submissions will be published
in online proceedings.



As the goal is to provide the speakers with constructive feedback and a way
to be introduced to the community, the competitive elements often found in
conferences (best paper award, best presentation award) are intentionally
omitted. The peer review will focus not on the magnitude of the presented
material but on the clarity of the formulated material or whether or not the
posed question is of relevance to a majority of students.

Giving a good presentation is a difficult task, practicing it is the benefit
of this session. The extent to which the audience has understood the details
should be the criterion by which the presentations are judged.
