This workshop will take place in December 2009 in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nagoya Nagoya (名古屋市)], during the [http://www.prima2009.org/ 12th International Conference on Principles of Practice in Multi-Agent Systems (PRIMA'09)]. [http://users.ecs.soton.ac.uk/sdr/atdm/ A first workshop] on the same topic already took place in May 2006 in Hakodate, Japan during the Fifth International Joint Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems.

== Description ==

In the context of large natural disasters like the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2004_Indian_Ocean_earthquake Indian Ocean Tsunami in 2004] or [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane_Katrina Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans in 2005] but also man-made disasters like terrorist attacks, the topic of disaster management has become a key concern both from a social and political point of view. It is critical to provide rescue personnel with information technology tools that enable more effective and efficient mitigation during crisis response. A number of distinct actors and agencies (local and international rescue teams, NGOs, etc.), each with their own aims, objectives, and resources, should be able to coordinate their efforts in a flexible manner in order to prevent further problems or to effectively manage the aftermath of a disaster.

This workshop will focus on the use of agent technology for disaster management and response and includes the following non-exhaustive list of special interest topics:
 
−
* Dedicated frameworks and architectures for agent-based spatial decision support systems (SDSS) for natural and man-made disasters,
 
−
* Coordination, communication and collaborative planning in large-scale multi-agent systems that deals with uncertainty and conflicting information during crisis management,
 
−
* Coordination and deployment of multi-robots system or wireless sensors network on site,
 
−
* Human-Agent or Human-Robot interactions (HRI) during search & rescue operations,
 
−
* Security issues in agent-based systems for search and rescue missions, use of games,
 
−
* Agent-based simulation systems, participatory simulations,
 
−
* Behavioural modelling and simulation of rescue workers,
 
−
* Development methods for agent based systems in emergency management.
 
−
 
 
−
Multi-Agent Systems are being increasingly applied to real-life applications that deals with uncertain, complex and dynamic environments. Future disaster response systems may involve a complex mixture of humans performing high level decision-making, intelligent agents coordinating the response, sensors networks providing real-time observations and robots undertaking physical tasks in large-scale environments, which are prone to uncertainty, ambiguity and incompleteness given the dynamic and evolving nature of disasters.

−
Although, this workshop will mainly focus on the potential of agent technology for disaster management and response, we also welcomes contributions focusing on potential problems and risks associated with the use of this technology.
