Scope
Ambient Intelligence (AmI) is a paradigm emerging from Artificial Intelligence, where computers are used as proactive tools assisting people with their day-to-day activities, making life more comfortable.
Agents and Multi-Agent Systems represent an alternative that is interesting and stimulating to meet the challenges posed by AmI Environments. Agents have characteristics such as autonomy, reasoning, reactivity, social abilities and pro-activity which make them appropriate for developing systems based on AmI.
Throughout the development of AmI several sub-topics have emerged to overcome problems that are related to AmI but are imposed mostly in other areas, creating a diverse multitude of Agent applications transversal to several different areas.


Topics of interest

The topics of interest include, but are not limited to the application of agents to:

- Intelligent Environments
- Ambient Assisted Living
- Ubiquitous Computing
- Pervasive Computing
- Context Aware Computing
- Mobile Computing and Applications
- Medical Environment Applications
- AmI for e-Learning
- On-line Dispute Resolution Applications
- Cognitive Impairment Agent Assistants
