Multi-Agent Systems in Transportation Systems
Invited Session @ AMSTA-19
Agent & Multi-Agent Systems: Technologies & Applications
http://amsta-19.kesinternational.org/
17th-19th June 2019, Intercontinental Hotel, St Julians, Malta
**************************************************************************
The purpose of this session is to bring researchers and practitioners together to discuss how agents and
- Applications of Multi-Agent Systems in traffic, transportation, and transport logistics
- Optimization (e.g., traffic assignment, routing, route choice)
- Autonomic transportation systems
- Coordination in intelligent transportation systems
- Intelligent, adaptive traffic control
- Distributed decision making in traffic, transportation and transport logistics
- Multi-agent systems for intelligent vehicles
- Mobile devices in smart transportation systems
- Autonomous vehicles and collaborative driving
- Self-* properties of traffic systems
- Agent-based approaches to modelling driver behaviour
- Agent-based simulation of traffic and transportation systems
- Agent-based pedestrian and crowd simulation
- Shared and on-demand mobility (car sharing, ride sharing, Mobility as a Service, etc.)
multi-agent systems are related to a modern software paradigm which has long been recognized as a promising technology
for constructing autonomous, complex and intelligent systems.
Consisting of keynote talks by experts in the field, oral and poster presentations, AMSTA-19 will provide an excellent opportunity
for researchers to discuss modern approaches and techniques for agent and multi-agent systems and their applications, as well
as intelligent systems in the field of social networks, self-organisation and trust.
Proceedings
The conference proceedings will be published by Springer as book chapters in a volume of the KES Smart Innovation Systems
and Technologies series, submitted for indexing in Scopus and Thomson-Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index (CPCI)
The conference will take place as part of the Smart Digital Futures 2019 multi-theme conference which groups AMSTA-19,
IDT-19, IIMSS-19, InMed-19, SEEL-19 and STS-19 in one venue.
The event will take place in the Intercontinental Hotel, St Julians. Malta.
Conference Scope
=====================
The AMSTA conference includes a broad range of topics applicable to Agents and Multi-agent Systems. The following topics are
indicative of the scope of the conference, however other relevant topics are applicable.
Agent and Multi-agent Systems
Software agent is a program which performs actions defined by user. Multi-agent system consists of autonomous and collaborative
agents that have particular degree of mobility and intelligence. It is intended to provide the researchers an opportunity to exchange
theoretical and technical knowledge, hands-on experience, as well as to discuss current development and explore trends in agent
systems. The call is addressed to scientists and engineers from both academic and industrial environments, who design, develop
and implement software agents in different areas and applications.
New Digital and Knowledge Economy
The modern economy is driven by technologies and knowledge. Digital technologies can free, shift and multiply choices, often
intruding on the space of other industries, by providing new ways of conducting business operations and creating values for customers
The purpose of the Industrial Track is to promote research in our aforementioned topic areas and foster scientific exchange between
researchers, practitioners, scientists, students, and engineers in multi-agent systems and disruptive technologies.
We particularly recognise the importance of inter-disciplinary work to create today’s Digital and Knowledge Economy.
Standard length scientific papers, overview of research conducted in a company and short visionary paper and poster presentation
are therefore most welcome.
