AAMAS 2008

Just got back from a week in Portugal attending the 'Seventh International Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems' (AAMAS 2008). It was good to meet in person individuals whose work I have been following this past year-and-a-half. On the back of the conference and given that my focus is Argumentative Negotiation in Multiagent Systems, I find myself quite interested in the work of Iyad Rahwan (strategy etc), Peter Mcburney (dialogue games etc) and Elizabeth Black (enthymemes etc).
