DESCRIPTION:Agent-based Computing addresses the ch
 allenges in managing distributed computing systems
  and networks through monitoring, communication, c
 onsensus-based decision-making and coordinated act
 uation. As a result, intelligent agents and multi-
 agent systems have demonstrated the capability to 
 use intelligence, knowledge representation and rea
 soning, and other social metaphors like 'trust', '
 game' and 'institution', not only to address real-
 world problems in a human-like way but also to tra
 nscend human performance. This has had a transform
 ative impact in many application domains, particul
 arly in e-commerce, and also in planning, logistic
 s, manufacturing, robotics, decision support, tran
 sportation, entertainment, emergency relief & disa
 ster management, and data mining & analytics.   Fo
 r more information, see http://prima2015.apice.uni
 bo.it/   PRIMA 2015 invites submissions of origina
 l, unpublished, theoretical and applied work on an
 y such topic, and encourages reports on the develo
 pment of prototype and deployed agent systems, and
  of experiments that demonstrate novel agent syste
 m capabilities. There will be a special track on a
 pplications of multi-agent systems. The papers for
  this track would report experiences on using agen
 ts in an application domain and also discuss the c
 hallenges in deploying them. Two types of contribu
 tions are solicited: full papers (presenting origi
 nal theoretical and/or experimental research) and 
 short papers (showcasing works-in-progress). Deadl
 ine for abstracts: 17th June 2015.
