Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems

This book compiles the most visionary papers from 10 workshops held at the International Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems, AAMAS 2017, held in Sao Paulo, Brazil, in May 2017.

The 15 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in this volume. They deal with novel ideas proposing a change in the way research is currently carried out.
