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 provides a snapshot of the current state of the art related to the development of tools, frameworks and techniques for designing and implementing multi-agent systems. The single contributions are diverse in nature, with some providing overviews of toolkits, while others focus on specific features or application domains. To reflect this diversity, the book has been organized into two parts. The first part covers Languages, Frameworks and Platforms and contains six chapters that present overviews of some of the new toolkits that have emerged, and reflections on the evolution of some of the existing toolkits. The second part contains four chapters and covers Features, Mechanisms and Applications that have been developed for and with various agent toolkits. These chapters provide a more focused description of a specific mechanism or feature of a toolkit, or they describe toolkits that have been developed for a specific application domain. All the chapters include the rationale for the need of the toolkit or mechanism described, how it is positioned in the scientific panorama particularly in relation to the most recent advancements in artificial intelligence, a technical description, an analysis of limitations, and ethical and technical challenges.Representing the results of the most recent research on engineering agents and multi-agent systems, the book mainly targets researchers. In addition, it will also be useful for advanced professionals in industry, as the book may also serve as a roadmap to select the best tool and approach for a given problem.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Joint Conference an Ambient Intelligence, AmI 2013, held in Dublin, Ireland, in December 2013. The 15 revised full papers, 4 papers from the landscape track, 3 papers from the doctoral colloquium and 6 demo and poster papers were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions and are presented with 6 workshop descriptions. The papers cover a variety of multi-disciplinary topics in computer science, human computer interaction, electrical engineering, industrial design, behavioral sciences, distributed devices, ubiquitous and communication technologies, pervasive computing, intelligent user interfaces and artificial intelligence.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 8th International Workshop on Programming Multi-Agent Systems held in Toronto, Canada, in May 2010 in conjunction with AAMAS 2010, the 9th International Joint Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems. The 7 revised full papers presented together with 1 invited paper were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the book. The papers cover a broad range of mostly practical topics like decision component of agent systems; practical examples of programming languages; interaction with the environment, and are thus organized in topical sections on reasoning, programming languages, and environments.
