This workshop focused on research at the interface of constraint and agent technology. It encompassed both the modeling of agent issues, e.g. negotiation, as constraint satisfaction and optimization problems, and the use of agents to solve constraint satisfaction and optimization problems, e.g. distributed scheduling problems. It concerned both hardware agents and software agents. It included both applications of constraint algorithms and models, and applications of constraint languages and systems. It addressed both opportunities that agents offer to apply the constraint programming paradigm, and challenges that agents present to extend the paradigm.
