The Computing Community Consortium (CCC) recently sponsored a Blue Sky Ideas Conference Track at the 20th International Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems, May 3-7th, 2021, online.
The emphasis of this special track was on visionary ideas, long-term challenges, new research opportunities, and controversial debate. It served as an incubator for innovative, risky, and provocative ideas, and aimed to provide a forum for publishing and presenting these without being constrained by result-oriented standards.
