London, United Kingdom
21-24 November 2025
ScopeDAI 2025 aims to bring together researchers and practitioners in related areas (e.g., general AI, multi-agent systems, distributed learning, computational game theory) to provide a high-profile, internationally renowned forum for research in the theory and practice of distributed AI. The seventh DAI conference will be held in London, UK, with in-person participation only, except for extenuating circumstances such as visa issues.
In addition to regular paper submissions, we will also invite a selection of accepted papers from sister conferences (e.g., AAMAS, AAAI, IJCAI, EC, KDD, ICLR, ICML, NeurIPS) to present at DAI 2025. The program will also include high-quality keynotes, workshops, tutorials, and industry sessions.
Information for AuthorsDAI 2025 encourages the submission of theoretical, empirical, and perspective papers. Submissions should clearly explain the significance and relevance of their results to the DAI community. Each paper should contain a rigorous theoretical and/or an empirical evaluation, as well as relate to the existing literature. All submissions will be peer reviewed and evaluated for originality, soundness, relevance, significance, quality of presentation, and understanding of the state of the art.
Submission Deadline: August 11, 2025 (23:59 UTC-12)
Notification Date: September 8, 2025 (23:59 UTC-12)
Submission Site: To be announced
Paper Length: Max 8 pages (excluding references); unlimited appendix after bibliography (optional reading for reviewers)
