6: 1.1 Aims & Scope
7: 
8: The German conference on Multi-Agent System Technologies (MATES)
9: provides an interdisciplinary forum for researchers, users, and
10: developers, to present and discuss latest advances in research work, as
11: well as prototyped or fielded systems of intelligent agents and
12: multi-agent systems. The conference aims to promote theory and
13: application and covers the whole range of agent- and multi-agent
14: technologies.
15: For the seventh time, the German special interest group on Distributed
16: Artificial Intelligence organizes this international conference in
17: cooperation with the steering committee of MATES and thereby continues
18: this very successful track of events.
19: 
20: Building on the successful
21: [predecessors>http://www-ags.dfki.uni-sb.de/~klusch/mates-series/index.html] from 2003 to 2008, MATES 2009  takes place from
22: September 9 to 11, 2009 in Hamburg, Germany.
23: 
24: MATES 2009 is co-sponsored by the GI/ITG special interest group on Communication and Distributed Systems (KuVS) and co-organized by the research and technology transfer centre of the Department of Informatics at the University of Hamburg ([HITeC>http://www.hitec-hh.de/eng]).

27: 1.1 Colocated Events
28: 
29: MATES 2009 will be colocated with the [Tenth International Workshop on Computational Logic in Multi-Agent Systems (CLIMA’09)>CLIMA.Home] and the Fifth
30: [International Workshop on Modelling of Objects, Components, and Agents
31: (MOCA’09)>http://www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/TGI/events/moca09/]. The participants of MATES 2009 will also have full access to the
32: concurrently running program of these events. 
33: 
34: 1.1 Topics
35: 
36: Topics of interest of MATES 2009 include all aspects of
37: agent-oriented computing and agent technologies: basic and applied
38: research; reports on experiences with deployed real-world applications;
39: and detailed visions and challenges for mid- to long-term progress in
40: the field grounded in experience reports or analyses of the overall
41: technical, economical, and social context. MATES 2009 encourages
42: specifically submissions from an emerging area of interest with a
43: close connection to multi-agent systems: self-organizing systems and
44: autonomic computing.
45: 1.1 Exhibition
46: 
47: An additional part of the technical program of MATES 2009 will be
48: live exhibitions and of development tools, prototype technologies,
49: showcases of practical applications and their man-agement, and business
50: cases of agent and multi-agent technology at the conference venue. Each
51: potential exhibitor is requested to submit an exhibition paper
52: describing the contribution that follows the submission details of
53: technical papers but does not exceed 10 pages. Exhibition papers will
54: be reviewed and published as part of the conference proceedings.
55: At the conference, a special track for exhibition paper presentations
56: will be held in addition to the live presentation of the practical
57: work at poster stands.
58: 1.1 Proceedings
59: 
60: As in previous editions of MATES, the proceedings of MATES 2009
61: will be published in the Springer series of Lecture Notes on Artificial
62: Intelligence (LNAI).
63: 
64: 1.1 Doctoral Mentoring Program
65: 
66: MATES 2009 will include a doctoral mentoring program, aimed at PhD
67: students in early as well as advanced stages of their research. This
68: program will provide an opportunity for students to interact closely
69: with established researchers in their fields, to receive feedback on
70: their work and to get advice on managing their careers.
71: 
72: It will:
73: 
74: * match each student with an established researcher who will act as a mentor.
75: * allow students an opportunity to present their work to a friendly audience of other students, as well as mentors.
76: * provide students with contacts and networking opportunities.
77: 
78: <!--
79: The doctoral mentoring program consists mainly of a one day doctoral
80: symposium scheduled for September 9, 2009 (?).
