This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the Third International Workshop on Multi-Agent-Based Simulation, MABS 2002, held as part of the AAMAS 2002 conference in Bologna, Italy, in July 2002. The 12 revised full papers presented together with an invited paper were carefully selected during two rounds of reviewing and improvement. The papers are organized in topical sections on emergence, alliances, and groups; MABS platforms and languages; and MABS applications.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 6th International Workshop on Multi-Agent-Based Simulation, MABS 2005, held in Utrecht, The Netherlands in July 2005 as an associated event of AAMAS 2005, the main international conference on autonomous agents and multi-agent systems. The 12 revised full papers presented together with 1 invited talk were carefully reviewed. The papers are organized in topical sections on coalition emergence, theories and models, applications, and environments.

This book constitutes the refereed joint proceedings of the 7th Ibero-American Conference on AI and the 15th Brazilian Symposium on AI, IBERAMIA-SBIA 2000, held in Atibaia, Brazil in November 2000.The 48 revised full papers presented together with two invited contributions were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 156 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on knowledge engineering and case-based reasoning, planning and scheduling, distributed AI and multi-agent systems, AI in education and intelligent tutoring systems, knowledge representation and reasoning, machine learning and knowledge acquisition, knowledge discovery and data mining, natural language processing, robotics, computer vision, uncertainty and fuzzy systems, and genetic algorithms and neural networks.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the First International Workshop on Multi-Agent Systems and Agent-Based Simulation, MABS'98, held in Paris, France in July 1998 in conjunction with Agent World 1998.
