PRE-ANNOUNCEMENT / CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
------------------------------------------------------------------------


WORKSHOP ON ADVANCES IN ALGORITHMIC GAME THEORY

Center for Mathematics and Computer Science (CWI)
Amsterdam, The Netherlands
September 2-3, 2010

Workshop website: http://www.cwi.nl/~schaefer/agt10

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Algorithmic game theory has become a highly active research field that
contributed successfully to the understanding of many fundamental
games in recent years. The aim of the workshop is to provide an
international forum for researchers that are active in this field to
present and discuss recent results, exchange ideas and identify
potential future research directions. The workshop will also offer
young scientists the opportunity to get an overview of the state-of-
the-art of the field.

The two-day workshop will be hosted at the Center for Mathematics and
Computer Science (CWI) in Amsterdam and will take place September 2-3,
2010. There will be four keynote talks and about 12 contributed talks.
The keynote speakers are:

* Ioannis Caragiannis (University of Patras, Greece)
* Michal Feldman (Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel)
* Jason Hartline (Nothwestern University, USA)
* Tim Roughgarden (Stanford University, USA)

A preliminary program is available on the website.

The participation at the workshop is free of charge. Participants will
be asked to register at some later stage.

More detailed information about the workshop will be provided soon on
the website
