IMASE 2000
INTELLIGENT MULTI-AGENT SYSTEMS FOR E-COMMERCE
Call for Papers
Special Issue of Netnomics
and
Workshop at the
Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference
GECCO-2000
Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, 8-14 July 2000
There is increasing interest in autonomous agents, particularly with their
use both in Internet trading and Economic simulations. IMASE 2000
concentrates upon the use of adaptive learning agents within such systems
and will promote awareness of the current state of the art and future
prospects for the use of evolutionary computation within intelligent
multi-agents systems. Particularly within the application of electronic
commerce and economic simulations. The best discussion papers will be
considered for a special issue on Intelligent Multi-Agent Systems in
Electronic commerce of the Netnomics journal.
Purpose:
The workshop and special issue of the Netnomics journal are about using
evolutionary learning by intelligent multi-agent systems. With particular
emphasis on application in economics in general and electronic commerce
(E-Commerce, Internet trading) in particular. Topics include evolutionary
algorithms used as a learning component within intelligent learning agents
and/or evolutionary learning by multi-agent systems comprised of simple
agents.
GECCO is the joint conference of Genetic Programming 2000 and International
Conference on Genetic Algorithms 2000, ICGA 2000. It is the largest and most
inclusive conference in the field of evolutionary computation. By holding
IMASE 2000 at the GECCO 2000 conference we will attract interest in
evolutionary computation within intelligent learning agents in multi-agent
systems for e-commerce and we hope by gathering interested parties together
to both promote and advance the field.
Call for Discussion Papers
Short (up to 3 pages) discussion papers are invited After the workshop a
selection of the best papers will form a special issue of the Netnomics
journal. Position papers are invited on (but not limited to):
* the design and implementation of intelligent software agents for
commercial or economical applications, by evolutionary techniques
* the modeling and simulation of software agent systems as complex
adaptive systems, by evolutionary techniques
