5 Preface Since the first edition in 2013, the International Workshop on Engineering Multi-Agent Systems (EMAS) has been a reference venue where software engineering, MAS, and artificial intelligence researchers can meet, discuss different viewpoints and findings, and share them with industry. Originally set up by merging three separate historical workshops AOSE, focusing on software engineering aspects, ProMAS about programming aspects, and DALT about the application of declarative techniques for the design, programming, and verification of MAS the overall purpose of EMAS is to facilitate the cross-fertilization of ideas and experiences in the various fields to: Enhancing knowledge and expertise in MAS engineering and improving the state of the art Defining new directions for MAS engineering that are useful to practitioners, relying on results and recommendations coming from different but continuous research areas Investigating how practitioners can use or need to adapt established methodologies for the engineering of large-scale and open MAS Like previous editions, the fifth edition of the workshop was co-located with AAMAS (International Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems) which in 2017 took place in Brazil, Sao Paulo. The previous editions were held in St. Paul (LNAI 8245), in Paris (LNAI 8758), in Istanbul (LNAI 9318), and in Singapore (LNAI 10093). This year the EMAS workshop was held as a two-day event. In total, 18 papers were submitted to the workshop and after a double review process, 11 papers were selected for inclusion in this volume. All the contributions were revised by taking into account the comments received and the discussions at the workshop. Among them, the paper Approaching Interactions in Agent-Based Modelling with an Affordance Perspective by Franziska Klügl and Sabine Timpf also appears in LNAI [Sukthankar G., Rodriguez-Aguilar J. (eds), AAMAS 2017 Ws Best Papers, LNAI 10642, 2017, doi: / _14], since it was selected as the best paper of the workshop. Finally, we would like to thank the members of the Program Committee for their work during the reviewing phase, as well as the members of the EMAS Steering Committee for their valuable suggestions and support. We also acknowledge the EasyChair conference management system for its support in the workshop organization process. March 2018 Amal El Fallah-Seghrouchni Alessandro Ricci
