Call for Submissions:

The Swarm Development Group in conjunction with the University of Notre Dame Computer Science & Engineering Department invites the submission of Abstracts for the 17th Annual SwarmFest Conference, to be held at the University of Notre Dame from June 29th – July 1st, 2014.

SwarmFest is the annual meeting of the Swarm Development Group, one of the oldest communities involved with the development and propagation of agent-based modeling. The meeting brings together both users and developers of agent based models across many domains, including computer science, software engineering, biology, ecology, economics, political science, social science, and resource management.

The goal of the conference is to share research and experiences within the agent-based modeling community, and to further guide and enhance future research efforts. Submissions are encouraged for any area of agent-based modeling.
To submit your work for consideration, please send an extended abstract to swarmfest2014@gmail.com. The deadline for abstracts is June 1st. All accepted submissions will be expected to deliver a 20-30 minute presentation. All presenters will also be encouraged to bring an optional poster for a separate poster session.
