    LAMAS&SR 2024 - Preliminary Call For Papers
    
    International Workshop on Logical Aspects of Multi-Agent Systems and Strategic Reasoning
    
    Co-located with KR 2024, International Conference on Principles of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning
    Hanoi, 2 November - 4 November, 2024

    Logic and strategic reasoning play a central role in multi-agent systems. Logic can be used, for instance, to express the agents' abilities, knowledge, and objectives. Strategic reasoning refers to algorithmic methods that allow for the development of good behavior for the agents of the system. At the intersection, we find logics that can express the existence of strategies or equilibria and can be used to reason about them. The LAMAS&SR workshop merges two international workshops: LAMAS (Logical Aspects of Multi-Agent Systems), which focuses on all kinds of logical aspects of multi-agent systems from the perspectives of artificial intelligence, computer science, and game theory, and SR (Strategic Reasoning), devoted to all aspects of strategic reasoning in formal methods and artificial intelligence. Over the years the communities and research themes of both workshops got closer and closer, with a significant overlap in the participants and organizers of both events. For this reason, the two events have been unified under the same flag, formally joining the two communities. As such, the LAMAS&SR workshop aims to bring together researchers working on different aspects of either logic or strategic reasoning in computer science, artificial intelligence, and multi-agent
    systems research, both from a theoretical and a practical viewpoint.

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    SUBMISSION.
    
    Authors are invited to submit extended abstracts of up to 4 pages plus 1 page for references only, in the format of the KR 2024 conference (KR24_authors_kit.zip). Both published and unpublished works are welcome. Submissions are subject to a single-blind review process (submissions should not be anonymous).
    Although there will be no formal proceedings, accepted extended abstracts will be available on the workshop website. Submissions must be in PDF and will be handled via CMT, using the following link:
    
    https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com/LAMASSR2024
    
    Submissions from PC members are also allowed. Since the workshop will have informal proceedings, extended versions of the accepted papers can also be submitted elsewhere.
    
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    PROCEEDINGS 
    
    The informal proceedings will be available as a single PDF file from the workshop website. Extended and revised versions of the best papers presented at the workshop will be invited for a journal special issue.
