Multi-Agent Programming Contest
Short scenario description

The contest scenario "Agents on Mars" consists of developing a multi-agent system to solve a cooperative task in a dynamic environment. The goal is to implement a team of cooperating agents with different roles in order to occupy zones on planet Mars.

Participation requirements
The participation in this contest consists of these parts:

1. Declaring the intent to participate by registering to the mailing list.
2. Submission of the description of analysis, design and implementation of a multi-agent system for the above application. Thus registering to the contest officially.
3. Participation in the contest tournament by taking part on the final tournament.
4. Submitting the source-code of your application right after the tournament.
 
Aims and Scope

This competition is an attempt to stimulate research in the area of multi-agent system development and programming by

  1. identifying key problems,
  2. collecting suitable benchmarks, and
  3. gathering test cases which require and enforce coordinated action
that can serve as milestones for testing multi-agent programming languages, platforms and tools. We also expect that participating at the contest helps to debug existing systems and to identify their weak and strong aspects.

The performance of a particular system will be determined in a series of games where the systems compete against each other. While winning the competition is not the main point, we hope it will shed light on the applicability of certain frameworks to particular domains.
