multiagent systems beginning play important role todays software development see example forthcoming new international journal agentoriented software engineering competition attempt stimulate research area multiagent systems identifying key problems collecting suitable benchmarks serve milestones testing new approaches techniques computational logics exist several competitions various parts artificial intelligence theorem proving planning robocup etc lately also specialised areas agent systems trading agents emphasis contest use computational logic multi agent systems expect promote development multiagent systems first identifying difficult problems finding solutions comparing different approaches computational logic solving idea seems appealing easy task come particular scenario serves basis contest scenario generic enough applicable wide range techniques computational logic also precise enough different approaches tested compared scenario description competition organised part clima consists developing multiagent systems solve cooperative task dynamically changing environment environment multiagent system gridlike world agents move one slot neighbouring slot agent already slot environment food appear one slots special slot food appear considered depot agents bring collect food agent observe food slot currently visiting initially food placed randomly selected slots execution additional food appear dynamically randomly selected slots except depot slot agents may haveplay different roles explorer collector communicate cooperate order find collect food efficient effective way encourage submissions specify design multiagent system terms highlevel concepts goals beliefs plans roles communication coordination negotiation dialogue order generate efficient effective solution mentioned application moreover multiagent system implementations based computational logic techniques eg logic programming formal calculi etc reflect design direct intuitive way challenge competition thus use computational logic techniques provide implemented models abstract concepts used specification design multiagent systems implemented models integrated implement abovementioned application intuitively directly effectively submission format submission consists two parts first part description analysis design implementation multiagent system application existing multiagent system methodologies gaia prometheus tropos used demanded describe analysis design system description implementation explained design implemented done explaining example computational logic techniques used implement certain aspects multiagent system including issues related individual agents maximum length description 5 pages according lncs format second part executable implementation application demand particular way data format algorithm mechanism implement system long implemented multiagent system long environment 20x20 grid moreover possible configure initial state environment place food arbitrary slots execution food appear automatically every 20 seconds randomly selected slot multiagent system run 4 agents positioned initially corners grid
