This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the International Workshop on Engineering Environment-Mediated Multi-Agent Systems, EEMMAS 2007, held in Dresden, Germany, in October 2007, in conjunction with ECCS 2007, the European Conference on Complex Systems
The volume includes 16 thoroughly revised papers, selected from the lectures given at the workshop, together with 2 papers resulting from invited talks by prominent researchers in the field. The papers are organized in sections on engineering self-organizing applications, stigmergic interaction, modeling and...

The idea that self-organisation and emergence can be harnessed for the purpose of solving tricky engineering problems is becoming increasingly accepted. - searchers working in many diverse ?elds (such as networks, distributed systems, operating systems and agent systems) are beginning to apply this new approach. This book contains recent work from a broad range of areas with the common theme of utilising self-organisation productively. As distributed information infrastructures continue to spread (such as the Internet, wireless and mobile systems), new challenges have arisen demanding robust...
