The Second International Workshop on the Internet of Agents (IoA)- In conjunction with AAMAS Conference 2017- São Paulo, Brazil: May 8, 2017- http://ioa.alqithami.com/2017/- [ CALL FOR PAPER ] :Internet of Things (IoT) has recently gained much attention due to theoverwhelming advantages it brings to our daily lives. The metaphor “Things"in an IoT does not only represent a variety of hardware, such as simplesensors, actuators or complex devices (e.g., vehicles, charging stations,heating control) it can also comprise pure software instances that might beservice-oriented or data-driven. Thus, huge interoperable networks evolveproducing large amounts of data and providing a tremendous quantity ofservices that are supposed to be handled in a distributed manner. An IoToffers the possibility to develop completely new cross-domain solutions butalso comes with a lot of challenges for areas such as data aggregation,automated service selection or distributed planning.On the confluence between IoT and Multi-Agent Systems (MAS), there is astrong ongoing trend for the IoT to adapt to the intelligentnature/architecture of the MAS that we termed as “Internet of Agents”(IoA). The IoA workshop emphasizes on the current range of nascent networkcentric agents that operate on IoT infrastructures. From a broader point ofview, this includes agents’ efforts to form collaborative units as well asthe techniques and methodologies for constructing online agents thatrepresent interests of their actual counterparts (e.g., hardware devices orsensors) and take actions autonomously. This workshop will reflect theimpacts of the dynamic network proliferation and start of smart agentsystems that exploit and explore opportunities heralded by the fastsocial-pace of interconnectivity. From a narrow point of view, we aim tocollect, to present, and to discuss (practical) applications and cognitivefoundations surrounding agent-based approaches that successfully overcomewell-known challenges of software that operates on IoT environments inorder to identify promising scenarios that motivate a broader use ofagent-technology for the development of IoT-software.- [ WORKSHOP OBJECTIVES AND AREAS ] :The workshop seeks to attract papers concerning:- Presenting a formal or interdisciplinary architecture of IoA,- Discussing an experiment or prototype for IoA,- Providing a novel approach to IoA, or- Mapping an existing approach to IoA.This can be through a theoretical modeling, animation, simulation, orby presenting existing (real-world) applications.The topics of interest for the IoA workshop will comprise all technicalissues that are related to IoT systems and can be solved via a(multi-)agent based approach. More concrete, these include but are notlimited to:- Agents-based interactive environments- Architectures of cognitively reasoned things and interactions- Cooperation and collaboration mechanisms- Automated service discovery or selection- Quality-of-Service (QoS) and service composition- Computational models of distributed technologies- IoT/M2M applications and services employing MAS- Globalized networks and grid alliances- Network-centric warfare, individualism or organizations- IoA security including self-healing and self-protection- IoA monitoring and control includingself-configuration/-adaption/-optimizationPapers may address one or more of the listed topics, although authorsshould not feel limited by them. All topics and submission formats are opento both research and industry contributions. Papers should be written inEnglish, formatted according to the Springer LNCS style, and not exceed16 pages.- [ IMPORTANT DATES ] :Submission DEADLINE: February 7, 2017Notification of acceptance: March 2, 2017
