Special Session: Trends in Multi-Agent Systems (IJCRS)

Special Session: TMAS 2017


Computing Systems Artificial Intelligence



The main aim of the session is to discuss and publish innovative research in the field of agent and multi-agent systems.
The aim of the session is to provide an internationally respected forum for researchers and industrial practitioners to
discuss their latest and planned future work, possible influence to current and future research and industrial
communities and/or impact to our societies.
The special session will provide an excellent opportunity for researchers to discuss modern approaches and techniques
for agent and multi-agent systems and their applications.
The conference will be co-located under the 2017 International Joint Conference on Rough Sets.
Experienced and new researchers working on theoretical or practical applications in related areas are encouraged to
participate.
