Call for Participation early registration deadline Aug. 13 Second International German Conference on Multi-agent System Technologies (MATES'04) September 29 - 30, 2004 Erfurt, Germany http://www.tzi.de/MATES04/mates04.php registration: http://www.netobjectdays.org/node04/en/Register/index.html The German conference on Multi-agent system TEchnologieS (MATES) provides an interdisciplinary forum for researchers, users (members of business and industry) and developers, to present and discuss latest advances in research work, as well as prototyped or fielded systems of intelligent agents. The conference covers the whole range from theory to application of agent- and multi-agent technologies in order to promote theory and application of agents and multi-agent systems. The conference features an exhibition of practical applications with an advanced concept of agency, as well as introductory and expert keynotes/tutorials on practical aspects of agent-based computing. invited speakers: Jim Odell, Cristiano Castelfranchi and more MATES'04 is conducted * as an integral part of the Fifth International Conference NetObject Days 2004 along with the * 8th International Workshop on Cooperative Information Agents (CIA) 2004 * Autumn meeting of FIPA (Foundation of Intelligent Physical Agents) * Prototype and Product Exhibition of Agent Related Platforms, Frameworks, Systems, Applications, and Tools Steering Committee MATES Hans-Dieter Burkhard (HU Berlin, Germany) Stefan Kirn (TU Ilmenau, Germany) Matthias Klusch (DFKI, Germany) Jörg Müller (Siemens AG, Germany) Rainer Unland (Universität Duisburg-Essen, Germany) Gerhard Weiss (TU München, Germany) Program September, 29 2004 10:15 - 11:45 Session: Learning Agents M.
