Research in Agents and Multiagent Systems has matured significantly in recent years, representing one of the main branches of Artificial Intelligence and currently there are numerous effective applications of these technologies combined with Deep Learning, Computer Vision or Natural Language Processing, including areas such as healthcare and Ambient Intelligence, smart cities and mobility, Industry 4.0, educational technology, and fintech, among many others. In this regard, the International Conference on Practical Applications of Agents and Multi-Agent System (PAAMS) provides an international forum to present and discuss the latest scientific advances and their effective applications in different sectors, evaluate the impact of the approach and facilitate technology transfer among different stakeholders. Currently, a series of co-located events specialized in different areas of research are held simultaneously with PAAMS, these being the International Congress on Blockchain and Applications (BLOCKCHAIN), the International Conference on Distributed Computing and Artificial Intelligence (DCAI), the International Conference on Decision Economics (DECON), the International Symposium on Ambient Intelligence (ISAmI), the International Conference on Methodologies and Intelligent Systems for Technology Enhanced Learning (MIS4TEL), and the International Conference on Practical Applications of Computational Biology & Bioinformatics (PACBB). In this regard, the present Special Issue includes a selection of extended papers presented at the 20th International Conference PAAMS 22 and its co-located events and held in L’Aquila (Italy), July 13-15, 2022.
