******************************************************************************

We are inviting tutorial proposals for the 17th European Agent Systems 
Summer School (EASSS-2015), which will be held at the University of Barcelona, 
Barcelona, Spain (http://www.ub.edu).

EASSS tutorials are typically 3.5 hours long, divided into two sessions 
of 1.45 hours each. 

For a detailed call for tutorials, please see below.

***                        ABOUT EASSS-2015                              
*****************************************************************************

Since 1999, the annual European Agent Systems Summer School (EASSS) 
has provided a forum for knowledge exchange between various research 
groups in the field of autonomous agents and multi-agent systems, with the 
aim of benefiting mainly graduate students and researchers at both beginner 
and advanced level.

The 17th European Agent Systems Summer School will be held at the 
University of Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain, from the 6th to 10th of July 2015.

As was the case with its highly successful earlier editions, EASSS-2015 will 
offer a rich programme of both introductory and advanced courses on a broad 
range of topics in the area of Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems. 
The courses are aimed at PhD students, advanced Master's students, and 
other young researchers, and will be taught by leading researchers in the field. 

EASSS is organised under the auspices of EURAMAS, the European Association 
for Multiagent Systems (http://www.euramas.org/).

*** We are now inviting proposals from members of the research community 
who are willing to offer tutorials at EASSS-2015. ***

We are interested in tutorial proposals in all areas of current research in 
Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems. As a very rough guideline, any 
topic that might be covered at the AAMAS conference or in the JAAMAS journal 
would be suitable for EASSS.

We are looking for a mix of tutorials on fundamental and clearly established topics 
on the one hand, as well as overviews of new and emerging areas of research 
on the other.

Tutorials should cover an appropriate selection of approaches and not specifically 
focus on the tutors' own contributions. Besides providing a coherent overview of 
a specific research topic, we specifically encourage tutorial proposals to articulate 
a clear link to applications and pragmatic considerations of the fundamentals 
presented.

We encourage both well-established senior researchers and younger colleagues 
to put in a proposal. Each tutorial is usually given by one or two people. Exceptions 
are of course possible; for proposals by more than two tutors, please justify this 
choice in the proposal and explain how you intend to ensure the coherence of 
the tutorial.

To be able to offer this summer school and keep registration costs manageable 
for attendees, we are dependent on the support of the research community. We 
can at this point commit to the provision of up to 400 euros per tutorial proposal, 
to cover the travel and accommodation costs of all the tutorial's speakers. 
However, since we expect that some tutorials will be given by region-based 
speakers with lower costs, we anticipate (but can of course not guarantee at 
this point) that some surplus monies will be made available for distribution where 
necessary amongst tutorial speakers whose costs may exceed the 400 euros 
per tutorial.

***                       SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS

the points listed below.

Please, submit the proposal by email to 

[log in to unmask]

mentioning [TUTORIAL] in the subject line.

The following points should be addressed in the tutorial proposal, preferably 
in the order stated below:

(1) Title of the proposed tutorial.

(2) Tutor(s): name, affiliation, full contact details, and a link to the personal 
homepage of each tutor.

(3) Abstract: a short paragraph describing the tutorial (100-300 words), suitable 
for publication at the EASSS-2014 website.

(4) Topics covered: detailed list of topics covered in the tutorial in terms of a list, 
preferably in the order in which the tutorial will cover them.

(5) Type: a clear indication of whether the tutorial takes a theoretical or 
applications-oriented perspective on the covered material. We encourage 
tutorials to balance the two perspectives.

(6) Level: please indicate the target audience and level of the course.
If there are some prerequisites about existing knowledge of students,
describe what knowledge will be assumed.

(7) Teaching materials: Please indicate what kind of teaching materials you 
intend to provide. Note that we will require materials by the due date bellow, 
in order that they can be distributed to EASSS attendees in advance.

(8) Duration: Tutorials are typically 3.5 hours long. If you have strong reasons for 
wanting to deviate from this standard, please explain this in your proposal.

(9) Equipment: Please list any special equipment (beyond data projector and 
blackboard) that you might need.

(10) Short biographical sketch(es): a short paragraph on the background of 
the tutor or tutors (around 100 words per tutor), suitable for publication at the 
EASSS-2015 website.

(11) Experience of tutors: For review purposes, please provide details on relevant 
teaching experience of the tutor(s).

(12) Additional information on the proposed tutorial. Include as much detail as 
you see fit.
