Expert Systems: The Journal of Knowledge Engineering by Blackwell Publishing
Special Issue on Engineering Semantic Agent Systems
The IEEE International Workshop Series on Engineering Semantic Agent Systems
(ESAS) has been held since 2006 in conjunction with Annual IEEE
International Computer Software and Applications Conferences (COMPSAC).
Beginning 2006, COMPSAC is designated as the IEEE Computer Society Signature
Conference on Software Technology and Applications. ESAS Workshop Series has
two complementary objectives:
i. To inquire into the theory and practice of engineering semantic
multi-agent systems (MAS), especially methods, means and best cases.
ii. To explore into unifying software engineering methodologies employed
in implementing semantic MAS applications across domains.
Semantic web technologies render dynamic, heterogeneous, distributed, shared
content equally accessible to human reader and software agents. Here the
vision is to achieve a synergy with MAS technologies that other workshops
have so far missed, whereby both semantics and agents will be in the center
stage. ESAS Workshop Series aims at garnering the synergy of both
technologies by taking up both the semantic web and the agent aspects of the
common research issue. ESAS Workshops have been very successful in
attracting high quality submissions and they have become a focus of
attention for researchers and practitioners of semantic software agents,
mobile agents, MAS and semantic web technologies.
Topics of Interest:
-------------------
Topics span a wide spectrum of both theory and practice in autonomous
semantic agents, context-aware intelligent agents, agents as semantic web
services, software agents, mobile agents, agent architectures, multi-agent
systems, agent communities, cooperation and goal seeking through sharing
policy and ontology, safety & security in systems, other QoS issues, and so
on.
Paper submission:
-----------------
This special issue of Expert Systems is primarily intended for revised and
substantially extended versions of selected papers presented at ESAS 2007
and ESAS 2008. Additionally, this CFP is open to all potential authors and
other papers by ESAS authors. Submitted articles must not have been
previously published or currently submitted for journal publication
elsewhere. The authors should include a brief statement in their submission
to indicate the way in which the article differs from their workshop papers
and especially comment on the additional original content and contributions.
A prospective author is responsible for understanding and adhering to the
submission guidelines which can be accessed from:
http://www.blackwellpublishing.com/submit.asp?ref=0266-4720. Please
thoroughly read these before submitting a manuscript. Each paper will go
through a rigorous review process.
Interested authors should submit digital copies (PDF preferred) of their
papers, including all tables, diagrams, and illustrations, to all the Guest
Editors by email.
Important Dates:
----------------
Submission Deadline: September 30, 2008
Completion of First-Round Reviews: January 31, 2009
Revised Papers: March 15, 2009
