This book outlines the characteristics and implications of a potential geography of uncertainty. In doing so, it analyses this concept in reference to both the origins of uncertainty in Early Modern Age and the current geopolitical situation.

The book adopts an interdisciplinary approach to uncertainty, drawing on global perspectives and literature to define its meanings and characteristics. In order to develop a thorough and precise understanding of the geography of uncertainty, a broad perspective is adopted, which includes other forms of knowledge in which the concept of uncertainty is firmly established. As such the book creates temporal links, that may occasionally be far off from one another, to present a geographical perspective of uncertainty. It provides an interpretation of the phenomenon of globalization in a new way, relating it to the first European openness to global spaces, the Early Modern Age, and identifying the transition from the medieval world to the Modern Age as the first manifestation of uncertainty in geography. Uncertainty is more prevalent than ever in today''s geopolitical, economic, financial and social reality, as well as the ongoing emergencies and crises.

The book adopts an interdisciplinary approach rooted in the geography of Early Modernity by referring to geopolitical scenarios, literature and philosophy, to target the historical roots and the prevailing configuration of the geography of uncertainty. It will appeal to scholars and students of human and political geography, politics, philosophy, international relations, economics and history.

The set of papers collected in this issue originated from the AGERE! Workshop series - the last edition was held in 2017 - and concern the application of actor-based approaches to mainstream application domains and the discussion of related issues. The issue is divided into two parts. The first part concerns Web Programming; Data-Intensive Parallel Programming; Mobile Computing; Self-Organizing Systems and the second part concerns Scheduling; Debugging; Communication and Coordination; Monitoring.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 21st European Conference on Multi-Agent Systems, EUMAS 2024, which took place in Dublin, Ireland, on August 26, 2024.

The 24 full papers and 1 short paper included in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 36 submissions. They were organized in topical sections as follows: Multi-Agent Based Simulation; Multi-Agent Learning; Knowledge Representation, Reasoning and Planning; Human-Agent Interaction; Coordination, Organisations, Institutions, Norms andEthics; and Engineering Multi-Agent Systems.

This book constitutes the revised and selected papers from the 5th International Workshop on Engineering Multi-Agent Systems held in Sao Paulo, Brazil, in May 2018, in conjunction with AAMAS 2018. 

The 11 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 18 submissions. The book contains also the best paper of the workshop that has been published previously in another LNCS volume.
