Preface
These are the proceedings of the 8th International Workshop on Multi Agent Systems Technologies (MATES 2010), held during 27–29 September in Leipzig, collocated with the 40th Annual Conference of the Gesellschaft fur Informatik e.V. (GI). The main aim of the MATES conference series consists in bringing together researchers from around the world and providing a fruitful discussion basis for exchanging ideas and sharing the latest scientific results. Since its inception in 2003, MATES has been collocated with mainstream software engineering conferences like the NetObjectDays as well as with the German Artificial Intelligence Conference (KI) and has thus strived to address the full range of agent research topics from practical applications and tools for agent technology to the theoretical foundations of multi-agent systems. In addition to the broad range of topics covered by MATES, special areas of interest (hot topics) within the field of multi-agent systems have been identified in recent years and have influenced the conferences. Multi-agent systems are communities of problem-solving entities that can perceive and act upon their environment in order to achieve both their individual goals and their joint goals. The work on such systems integrates m
