You are cordially invited
to
participate in the 2007 International Conference on Autonomous Agents and
Multiagent Systems,
to be held May 14-18, 2007 at the
Hawaii Convention Center in Honolulu, Hawai'i. |
|
|
| AAMAS
is the premier scientific conference for research in autonomous agents and
multiagent systems. The AAMAS conference series was initiated in 2002 as a
merger of three highly respected individual conferences: the International
Conference on Autonomous Agents, the International Workshop on Agent
Theories, Architectures, and Languages, and the International Conference on
Multi-Agent Systems. |

(March 20, 2007) Sarit Kraus receives ACM/SIGART Autonomous Agents Research Award 2007
The selection committee for the ACM/SIGART Autonomous Agents Research
Award is pleased to announce that Prof Sarit Kraus, of Bar-Ilan
University, Israel, is the recipient of the 2007 award. Prof Kraus is
well known for her work on formal models of multi-agent systems. In
particular, she pioneered the development of techniques for
computational negotiation, automated coalition formation, cooperative
search, and the logical formalization of cooperation and multi-agent
shared plans. She has also made significant and lasting contributions
to the wider field of AI, in areas such as search and non-monotonic
reasoning.
In addition to her substantial research contributions, Prof Kraus has
served the autonomous agents research community in many ways. She was
PC chair of the Fourth International Conference on Multi-Agent
Systems (ICMAS2000), and general co-chair of the Fourth International
Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multi Agent Systems (AAMAS2005).
She has been an associate editor of the AAMAS journal since its
founding, and an editor of AI Journal since 2000. Sarit is also an
Adjunct Professor of Computer Science at the Institute for Advanced
Computer Studies, University of Maryland.
About the award:
ACM SIGART, in collaboration with the International Conference on
Autonomous Agents, has instituted an annual award for excellence in
research in the area of autonomous agents. Award winners receive an
honorarium and are invited to give a talk at the annual Autonomous
Agents and Multi-Agent Systems (AAMAS) Conference. This award is
specifically intended to recognize researchers whose current research
is influencing the field. Award candidates are evaluated based on the
quality and significance of their research contributions over the
last five years. It is expected that at least some of these
contributions should have been reported at one or more Autonomous
Agents or AAMAS conferences. Previous winners of the ACM SIGART
Autonomous Research Award were Michael Wooldridge (2006), Milind
Tambe (2005), Makoto Yokoo (2004), Nicholas Jennings (2003), Katia
Sycara (2002), and Tuomas Sandholm (2001).
(March 13, 2007) The IFAAMAS Board is delighted to announce the winners of the Influential Paper Award for 2007. We received a good number of
nominations from the Community this year and it was a difficult choice.
Nevertheless we believe we have selected 3 outstanding papers:
J. S. Rosenschein and M. R. Genesereth (1985)
"Deals Among Rational Agents"
The Ninth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence, Los
Angeles, California, August 1985, pages 91-99.
A. Rao and M. Georgeff (1991)
"Modelling rational agents within a BDI-architecture"
Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Principles of
Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (KR'91) pp.473-484.
B. J. Grosz and S. Kraus (1996)
"Collaborative Plans for Complex Group Actions" Artificial Intelligence
86, pages 269-358.
The awards will be presented at AAMAS-07
