We invite you to submit your best work in the area of agents and multiagent systems to AAMAS-2024, the 23rd International Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems, to be held in Auckland in May 2024.

All submissions will be rigorously peer-reviewed and evaluated on the basis of the overall quality of their technical contribution, taking into account criteria such as originality, significance, soundness, reproducibility, clarity, relevance to the conference, quality of presentation, as well as understanding and appropriate referencing of the state of the art. The papers will by published under CC BY license.

Detailed submission instructions are available on https://www.aamas2024-conference.auckland.ac.nz/calls/submission-instruction/

== Areas of Interest ==

We welcome the submission of technical papers describing significant and original research on all aspects of the theory and practice of autonomous agents and multiagent systems. If you are new to this community, then we encourage you to consult the proceedings of previous editions of the conference to fully appreciate the scope of AAMAS. At the time of submission, you will be asked to associate your paper with one of the following 11 areas of interest:

* Coordination, Organisations, Institutions, Norms, and Ethics
* Engineering Multiagent Systems
* Humans and AI / Human-Agent Interaction
* Innovative Applications, in particular addressing the Sustainable Development Goals
* Knowledge Representation, Reasoning, and Planning
* Learning and Adaptation
* Markets, Auctions, and Non-Cooperative Game Theory
* Modelling and Simulation of Societies
* (Multiagent) Reinforcement Learning
* Robotics
* Social Choice and Cooperative Game Theory

More information on these areas and the topics covered can be found here:
https://www.aamas2024-conference.auckland.ac.nz/calls/call-for-papers/

The reviewing process for each of these areas will be coordinated by dedicated area chairs familiar with the particularities of the area they are responsible for. We reserve the right to transfer a paper to a different area in case we believe that doing so will improve the quality of the reviewing process. You will have the opportunity to react to preliminary versions of the reviews of your paper (so-called “rebuttal”) before we take a final decision regarding the acceptance of your paper.

== Special Tracks ==

In addition to the main track, AAMAS-2024 will feature three special tracks, the Blue Sky Ideas Track, the JAAMAS Track, and the Demo Track, each with a separate Call for Papers. There will also be a fast track for AAAI 2024 papers rejected with positive reviews.

The focus of the Blue Sky Ideas Track is on visionary ideas, long-term challenges, new research opportunities, and controversial debate. The JAAMAS Track offers authors of papers recently published in the Journal of Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems (JAAMAS) that have not previously appeared as full papers in an archival conference the opportunity to present their work at AAMAS-2024. The Demo Track, finally, allows participants from both academia and industry to showcase their latest developments in agent-based and robotic systems.
