Aims and Scope

This workshop provides a general and open minded discussion forum where researchers working in Multi-Agents, Artificial Intelligence and Internet can meet together, share ideas and results on their areas of expertise in order to foster new developments and applications for the future Web.

The workshop will consist of an invited talk, oral presentations and poster sessions. The best accepted papers will appear in the proceedings published by Springer in the LNAI series. The remaining accepted papers and the posters will have a one page abstract in the same proceedings book and will appear in their entirety in locally-published proceedings.

The workshop is sponsored by APPIA, the Portuguese Association for Artificial Intelligence. It will be part of a set of Workshops that, together, will constitute the Portuguese Conference on Artifical Intelligence (EPIA'03).

  • Semantic Web
  • Query Languages for the Web
  • Rule Systems

  • Security issues
  • Agent societies
  • Multi-agents in the Web

Submission Instructions

Submissions must follow the guidelines specified in the main web page of the conference (see http://www.di.uevora.pt/epia03/). In particular, the reviewing process is double blind. Authors should remove names from the submitted papers, and should take reasonable care that their identity is disguised. References to own work can be included in the paper, but should be referred to in in the third person.

Authors should also prepare their submissions according with the instructions given given by Springer-Verlag in
http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html/

Even if the submissions can be made in PDF (preferable) or PS, we encourage authors to prepare their papers in TeX or LATEX 2e because this will be the only acceptable source formats for the camera ready final versions.
