It is our pleasure to welcome you to the AGERE! Workshop at SPLASH. This is the 2nd edition, confirming the aim of AGERE! of being a premiere venue for researchers and practitioners interested in programming and software development using actors, agents and all paradigms adopting a decentralized control mindset in solving problems and engineering systems. This year the workshop has run for two days, featuring a rich program including the presentation of 9 full pa- pers, 5 short/demo papers, and 3 invited talks: “On the integration of the actor model in mainstream tech- nologies - The Scala perspective” by Philipp Haller (Typesafe), “20 years of Agent-Oriented Programming in Distributed AI: History and Outlook” by Birna van Riemsdijk (Delft University of Technology, The Nether- lands) and “Agents, Concurrent Objects, and High Performance Computing” by Akinori Yonezawa (Univer- sity of Tokyo, Japan). The chairs would like to thank the members of the Program Committee for their great job in discussing and selecting the contributions, the invited speakers for their talks which have been essential for soliciting discus- sion and improving overall the quality of the event, Typesafe for supporting the workshop and ACM SIG- PLAN for the sponsorship.

Abstract
It is our pleasure to welcome you to the AGERE! Workshop at SPLASH. This is the 2nd edition, confirming the aim of AGERE! of being a premiere venue for researchers and practitioners interested in programming and software development using actors, agents and all paradigms adopting a decentralized control mindset in solving problems and engineering systems. This year the workshop has run for two days, featuring a rich program including the presentation of 9 full pa- pers, 5 short/demo papers, and 3 invited talks: “On the integration of the actor model in mainstream tech- nologies - The Scala perspective” by Philipp Haller (Typesafe), “20 years of Agent-Oriented Programming in Distributed AI: History and Outlook” by Birna van Riemsdijk (Delft University of Technology, The Nether- lands) and “Agents, Concurrent Objects, and High Performance Computing” by Akinori Yonezawa (Univer- sity of Tokyo, Japan). The chairs would like to thank the members of the Program Committee for their great job in discussing and selecting the contributions, the invited speakers for their talks which have been essential for soliciting discus- sion and improving overall the quality of the event, Typesafe for supporting the workshop and ACM SIG- PLAN for the sponsorship.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
