SCOPE
Modeling & Simulation represents a strategic sector to study real problems; therefore agent paradigm and its related theory and

methodologies opened in last years new frontiers for advancing the physical, natural, social, military, and information sciences

and engineering; the development .
Currently the developments of Intelligent Agents in cooperation with Simulation is providing a new exciting framework for

developing new solutions able to and to face the challenges provided by complex systems.

Topics and Area of interest include, but are not limited to:

Engineering applications: electrical engineering, communications, irrigation systems, manufacturing systems, networks, power

grid, robotics, software, transportation/logistics;
Management/economy applications: economy, sustainability and environment, and management;
- Social systems and human behavior applications: social systems, psychology/human behaviour, physiology, negotiation, and

organization theory;
Environmental applications: environmental management, ecosystems, land use
Defense & Homeland Security applications.
