INTRODUCTION
This
resource document is by no means complete.
It consists of three categories: (1) people in the research areas of
agents and multiagent systems, (2) papers related to agents and multiagent
systems, and some distributed intelligent systems, suitable for the class, and
(3) some relevant journals publishing agent-related papers.
