FAMAS 2019

FAIR ALLOCATION

IN MULTIAGENT SYSTEMS

About the Workshop

FAMAS 2019 will be colocated with AAMAS 2019.

The workshop's focus is on various aspects of fair division and allocation problems in multiagent systems. The past few years have seen a significant growth in the field of allocating resources in domains where fairness is a concern. These include problems of allocating computational resources amongst several parties, or market mechanisms for allocating bundles of indivisible items. The allocation of public goods has also been receiving a lot of attention recently; this domain includes the allocation of a divisible budget to various projects given agents’ preferences (known as participatory budgeting in the literature), the allocation of time-slots in public spaces, or the allocation of public goods.
