Calendar of Events

Autonomous agents are computer systems that are capable of independent action in dynamic, unpredictable environments. Agents are also one of the most important and exciting areas of research and development in computer science today. Agents are currently being applied in domains as diverse as computer games and interactive cinema, information retrieval and filtering, user interface design, and industrial process control. Agents '98 will build on the enormous success of the First International Conference on Autonomous Agents (Agents '97), held in Marina del Rey in February 1997. The conference welcomes submissions of original, high quality papers and videos with summaries concerning autonomous agents in a variety of embodiments and playing a variety of roles in their environments.
