IFAAMAS Student Session
Call for submissions
All students are cordially invited to participate in the
Student Session of EASSS'08.
The Student Session, organised by students, is designed to
encourage student interaction and feedback from the tutors. By
providing the students with a conference-like setup, both in the
presentation and in the review process, students have the
opportunity to prepare their own submission, go through the
selection process (peer review) and possibly present their work
to each other and their interests to their fellow students as
well as internationally leading experts in the agent field, both
from the theoretical and the practical sector.
All submissions will be peer-reviewed and accepted paper
submissions will be assigned a 15 minute slot for presentation
on Wednesday evening. Typically a presentation will either
detail the intended approach to a problem or ask a specific
question, directed at the audience. In addition, all submission
authors will be given the opportunity to present their work in
form of a poster that will be displayed at a special room
throughout the EASSS’08.
As the goal is to provide the speakers with constructive
feedback and a means to be introduced to the community, the
competitive elements often found in conferences (best paper
award, best presentation award) are intentionally omitted. The
peer review will focus not on the magnitude of the presented
material but on the clarity of the formulated material or
whether or not the posed question is of relevance to a majority
of students. Giving a good presentation is a difficult task,
practising it is the benefit of this session. The extend to
which the audience has understood the details should be the
criterion by which the presentations are judged.
