CretaMASSS-2013/HAISS’13-Agents, this July (22-26), @ ECE-TUC
The first ever IFAAMAS-sponsored Multiagent Systems Summer School in Greece, CretaMASSS-2013, will be held at the Department of Electronic and Computer Engineering of the Technical University of Crete, at Chania, Crete, Greece, from the 22nd to the 26th of July 2013.
We are pleased to announce that CretaMASSS-2013 is endorsed and co-organized by the Computational Social Choice ICT COST Action IC1205. The event is also endorsed by EURAMAS and ACM-SIGART. Moreover, we are pleased to announce that the event has also been endorsed by the Hellenic AI Society (EETN- Ελληνική Εταιρεία Τεχνητής Νοημοσύνης); after this endorsement, the official title of the School is “CretaMASSS-2013/HAISS’13-Agents”, since it also incarnates the 3rd, Agents-themed version of the bi-annual Hellenic Artificial Intelligence Summer School (HAISS’13-Agents).
CretaMASSS-2013/HAISS’13-Agents offers a well-balanced tutorial curriculum, covering topics such as Teamwork, Information Sharing in Large MAS, Game Theory, Economies and Markets, the Smart Grid, Robotics, and Agent-Based Software Development.
The event will have the form of half-day tutorials (TU), 3-4 hours long each, along with at least one panel discussion session, and along with specific short (30 mins or 1 hour long) research talks (RT).

Podcast at IEEE Spectrum reports on Lab member's Dr. Chalkiadakis research on designing an artificial football manager
"The Computer that beat 2 million humans at Fantasy Football [...]For decades, artificial intelligence was a field full of promise but little visible progress. [...] Now, researchers in the U.K. and Greece are hard at work trying to create the best player in the world at fantasy football, a game that attracts millions of people worldwide. They expect it to reap benefits for what they say are surprisingly similar tasks, such as how best to dispatch emergency responders."
