Engineering Societies in the Agents World V 5th International Workshop, ESAW 2004, Toulouse, France, October 20-22, 2004, Revised Selected and Invited Papers

The ?rst workshop “Engineering Societies in the Agents World” (ESAW) was held in August 2000, in conjunction with the 14th European Conference on Arti?cial Intelligence (ECAI 2000) in Berlin. It was launched by a group of - searchers who thought that the design and development of MASs (multi-agent s...
