Participatory Design of Multi-agent Systems
============================================
AAMAS'07 Tutorial T7
http://honiden-lab.ex.nii.ac.jp/~paul/tutorial
May 15th 2007, 8AM - 12 AM
Abstract
--------
The last years witnessed an increasing interest in experiments
bringing together human participants and software agents, in the
purpose of designing multi-agent systems (MAS) and agent-based
simulations (ABS). The aim of this tutorial is to provide solid
theoretical knowledge in this new research topic. Particularly, we
will discuss the main issues related to this approach and methods
developed to overcome them. These methods cover three different
traditions of participatory design of MAS and ABS.
The theory of participatory simulation is appealing only insofar as
one can have a flavor of its practical side. This is particularly
helpful to test, validate and improve the design of existing MAS.
Therefore, we aim at making the audience take part in a small
experiment during this tutorial.
Agenda
