Mario Paolucci, PhD in “Telematics and Information Society” (2005),
is a researcher at LABSS (Laboratory of Agent Based Social
Simulation, http://labss.istc.cnr.it), ISTC/CNR (Institute for
Cognitive Science and Technology), Rome, where he collaborates
since 1999. He had been Technology Expert at the National
Statistics Institute of Italy from 1996 to 2003.
He is studying and applying multiagent-based social simulation and
agent theory to understand social artefacts, in particular
Reputation, Norms, Responsibility, and the cultural evolutionary
mechanisms that support them. His publications include a book on
reputation with Rosaria Conte and articles on JASSS and Adaptive
Behavior, the International Journal of Cooperative Information
Systems, the International Journal of Approximated Reasoning.
He is the coordinator of the CNR workgroup on "Artificial Societes
and Social Simulation".
He has been the scientific coordinator of the eRep "Social
Knowledge for e-Governance" FP6 project, managing four
international partners and a budget of 1.7MEuro.
He has organized the first International Conference on Reputation,
ICORE'09; the First International Workshop on Agent-Based Social
Simulation and Autonomic Systems, (ABSS@Autonomics 2009), held at
Autonomics 2009 – the Third International ICST Conference on
Autonomic Computing and Communication Systems; the EEG 06 workshop
on Emergence Evolution and Generation, co-located with ECCS'06
(European Conference in Complex Systems), Oxford
He has chaired the RASTA '02 and '03 workshops, the RAS '04
workshop, and the MABS 2007 workshop. He has been senior program
committee member for the AAMAS conference in 2009 and 2010, and he
participated in the program committee of more than 25 conferences
and workshops, including the MABS series.
He has been invited speaker to the WOA 2009 National Workshop
"From Objects to Agents" and at the University of Luxembourg in the
series of the ILIAS Seminars (2007).
He is member of the editorial board for the International Journal
of Agent Technologies and Systems, An Official Publication of the
Information Resources Management Association, IGI Global (2009). He
is a reviewer for the Journal of Artificial Societies and Social
Simulation (JASSS), the Journal of Autonomous Agents and
Multi-Agent Systems (JAAMAS), the International Journal of Agent
Technologies and Systems (IJATS), the Journal of Computational and
Mathematical Organisation Theory (CMOT), the International Journal
of Human-Computer studies – IJHC, the Journal of Computer Science
and Technology.
He is teaching a course on Social Simulation at the University of
Bologna. He has been teaching Java language at the University Of
Perugia and Data Bases at the University of Rome 1.
