AAMAS Main Track

The AAMAS Main Track is the larger track and welcomes the submission of full technical papers describing significant and original research on all aspects of the theory and practice of autonomous agents and multiagent systems. If you are new to this community, then we encourage you to consult the proceedings of previous editions of the conference to fully appreciate the scope of AAMAS. At the time of submission, you will be asked to associate your paper with one of the following areas of interest: Learning and Adaptation (LEARN); Generative and Agentic AI (GAAI); Game Theory and Economic Paradigms (GTEP); Coordination, Organizations, Institutions, Norms, and Ethics (COINE); Search, Optimization, Planning, and Scheduling (SOPS); Representation, and Reasoning (RR); Engineering and Analysis of Multiagent Systems (EMAS); Modeling and Simulation of Societies (SIM); Human-Agent Interaction (HAI); Robotics and Control (ROBOT); Innovative Applications (IA). A workshop outreach pipeline is also in place, to encourage submission of high quality papers from related workshops at sister AI conferences not been published in any archival proceedings.

Workshops Proposals

We invite the submission of workshop proposals for review. We encourage workshops proposals that focus on emerging topics, open research questions and challenges, as well as broader subjects of interest to a wider community. Additionally, we welcome workshops with previous editions at AAMAS that can attract established communities working in the same research area.

 

Proposal submission deadline:

Tutorials Proposals

 

We invite proposals for the Tutorial Program, serving one or more of the following objectives: introduce novices to major topics of AAMAS research; Provide instruction in established practices and methodologies; survey a mature area of AAMAS research or practice; motivate and explain an AAMAS topic of emerging importance; Introduce expert non-specialists to an AAMAS area; survey an area of agent research especially relevant for people from industry; present a novel synthesis combining distinct lines of AAMAS work.

Proposal submission deadline:
January 16, 2026

Chairs:
Noa Agmon, agmon@cs.biu.ac.il
