Multi-Agent-Based Simulation XX: 20th International Workshop, MABS 2019, Montreal, QC, Canada, May 13, 2019, Revised Selected Papers

This volume presents selected papers from the 20th International Workshop on Multi-Agent-Based Simulation (MABS 2019), a workshop hosted by the 18th Inter- national Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems (AAMAS 2019), which took place in Montreal, Canada, during May 13-17, 2019. The main scientific focus of MABS 2019, and of the present volume, lies in the confluence of social sciences and multi-agent systems, with a strong application/empirical vein. The workshop is concerned with (i) exploratory agent-based simulation as a principled way of undertaking scientific research in the social sciences and (ii) using social theories as an inspiration for new frameworks and developments in multi-agent systems.
