Program

A preliminary schedule is given below:

The workshop takes one day. The schematic overview is as follows:

(9:45am-10am) Introduction.

We start with a brief introduction given by the organizing committee. The goals of the workshop will be explained as well as the set-up and schedule.

(10:00am-4pm) Paper sessions.

Next we start a series of sessions where the accepted papers are presented and discussed. For each accepted paper, one of the authors gets a strict time window of 20 minutes to present the work. Then 10 minutes are reserved for questions and discussion on the paper.

(10am-12pm) Paper Session 1 - Chair: Tom De Wolf

  • Emergent self-organisation of wireless sensor networks
    by Richard Anthony and Julie McCann
  • A Formal Approach to the Engineering of Emergence and its Recurrence
    by Martin Randles, Hong Zhu, and A. Taleb-Bendiab
  • Mercury: Multi-Agent Adaptive Service Selection Based on Non-Functional Attributes
    by Michal Jakob, Alex Healing, and Fabrice Saffre
  • Active Metadata Framework and Emergent Metadata Distribution with Scout Agents

(12pm-2pm) Lunch



(2pm-4pm) Paper Session 2 - Chair: Richard Anthony

  • Quality-of-Context Driven Autonomicity
    by Michael Breza, Richard Anthony, and Julie McCann
  • Using UML 2 Activity Diagrams to Design Information Flows and Feedback-loops in Self-Organising Emergent Systems
    by Tom De Wolf and Tom Holvoet
  • Design Patterns for Self-Organizing Multiagent Systems
    by Luca Gardelli, Mirko Viroli, and Andrea Omicini
  • A Principled Approach to Modeling Self-configuration in Distributed Systems
