abstract: The purpose of the ADS symposium is to facilitate dissemination of the most recent advancements in the theory, methodology, application, and toolkits of agent-directed simulation. Agent-directed simulation is comprehensive in the integration of agent and simulation technologies, by including models that use agents to develop domain-specific simulations, i.e., agent simulation (this is often referred to as agent-based simulation -when other two important aspects are not considered), and by also including the use of agent technology to develop simulation techniques and toolkits that are subsequently applied, either with or without agents.

abstract: KES-AMSTA-2010 is an international scientific symposium for research in the field of agent and multi-agent systems. The aim of the symposium is to provide an internationally respected forum for scientific research in the technologies and applications of agent and multi-agent systems.

Agents and multi-agent systems are related to a modern software paradigm which has long been recognized as a promising technology for constructing autonomous, complex and intelligent systems. This symposium will provide and excellent opportunity for researchers to discuss modern approaches and techniques for agent and multi-agent systems and their applications.

abstract: The International Workshop on Agent-based Computing for Enterprise Collaboration (ACEC) is an annual international forum that brings together researchers and practitioners to discuss state-of-the-art research, key issues, innovative ideas and applications in the dynamic and evolving area of agent-based computing. Already in its 8th year the ACEC workshop continues to be a popular and acclaimed event in the agent-based community. This year the ACEC workshop will concentrate on two main themes: (a) Agent-based Services (b)Agent-based Solutions for Dynamic Collaborations.

These two themes represent important areas where software agents can leverage their distributed nature along with their proactive and autonomous characteristics to provide solutions for complex problems which are difficult to address using traditional/existing technologies.

With the popularity and pervasiveness of services in the emerging digital world, enterprises must carefully evaluate how to make their services openly accessible. Furthermore, it is important for enterprises to learn how to exploit the services of others while taking into account the unexpected circumstances and changing scenarios, which frequently occur in business ecosystems.

In both of these (above given) contexts, software agents can play an important role. In this respect, we enthusiastically solicit papers that address agent mediation and management of services and/or products of on-line businesses.

abstract: The purpose of the 3rd International Conference on Agents and Artificial Intelligence (ICAART) is to bring together researchers, engineers and practitioners interested in the theory and applications in these areas. Two simultaneous but strongly related tracks will be held, covering both applications and current research work within the area of Agents, Multi-Agent Systems and Software Platforms, Distributed Problem Solving and Distributed AI in general, including web applications, on one hand, and within the area of non-distributed AI, including the more traditional areas such as Knowledge Representation, Planning, Learning, Scheduling, Perception and also not so traditional areas such as Reactive AI Systems, Evolutionary Computing and other aspects of Computational Intelligence and many other areas related to intelligent systems, on the other hand.
