AAMAS2020 invites proposals for the Workshop Program, to be held on May 9-13, 2020, immediately prior to the technical AAMAS conference.
The objective of the AAMAS2020 workshop program is to stimulate and facilitate discussion, interaction, and comparison of approaches, methods, and ideas related to specific topics, both theoretical and applied, in the general area of Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems. The AAMAS2020 workshops will provide an informal setting where participants will have the opportunity to discuss specific technical topics in an atmosphere that fosters the active exchange of ideas and supports community development.
All members of the AAMAS community are invited to submit workshop proposals for review. We encourage workshops that focus on emerging topics and applications, on open research questions and challenges, and on broader topics that are of interest to a wider community. In addition, we also encourage workshops that have had previous editions in AAMAS, and that could attract communities that have been working in a same research area for some years.
Workshops can vary in length from half a day to two days, though we expect most to be one full day in duration. As attendance will be limited to registered participants, workshop organisers and attendees must register for their workshop, whose fee will be separate from the main conference fee. As in previous AAMAS editions, one free workshop registration will be offered for each accepted workshop. Workshop attendees do not need to register for the main AAMAS conference but are encouraged to do so.
AAMAS2020 reserves the right to cancel workshops whose attendance does not support their running costs.
The workshop proposals should be submitted electronically as a single PDF file.
Items 1-10 should be a maximum of five pages in length, and should contain the following information:
In addition to the above items, please include one-page CVs for each of the organising committee members (not included in the 5-page limit). Please focus on the qualifications of the individual committee members with respect to organising an AAMAS workshop and including a list of key publications demonstrating scholarship in the field and a list of workshops previously arranged, if any. Note that strong proposals should include organisers who bring differing perspectives to the workshop topic and who are actively connected to the communities of potential participants.
The selection of workshops for the final program will be based upon multiple factors, including the scientific/technical interest of the topics in relation to the AAMAS community, the clarity of the proposal in addressing the requested information, the innovative character of workshop topics, the cross-disciplinary nature of the workshop, the capacity of the organisers in leading a successful workshop, and the capacity of the conference workshop program. Please note that AAMAS may request proposers addressing similar or overlapping content areas to merge their proposals.
For all accepted proposals, AAMAS will be responsible for:
