Argument & Computation (A&C) is a journal providing a dedicated venue for the dissemination of high quality papers concerning state-of-the-art advancements in the field of computational argumentation.

A&C stands as an interdisciplinary journal by nature, lying at the crossing of the studies on artificial, natural and theoretical argumentation, acknowledging the richness of diversity and promoting integration.

The journal welcomes submissions presenting original scientific results and innovative applications, relevant to this multi-faceted domain and addressing foundational, design, or implementation aspects of computational models and systems thereof, extending the state-of-the-art in research.

Proposals for timely reviews and tutorials and for special issues are encouraged and should be discussed with the Editors-in-Chief.

Topics of interest are exemplified, but not exhausted, by the following list:

Formal models for argumentation
Semi-formal and informal models for argumentation
Dialogue based on argumentation
Argumentation and computational linguistics
Argumentation and defeasible reasoning
Argumentation and game theory
Argumentation and probability
Argumentation and logic programming
Argumentation and narrative
Analogical argumentation
Reasoning about action and time with argumentation
Decision making based on argumentation
Strategies in argumentation
Argumentation for coordination and coalition formation
Argument-based negotiation, dispute resolution and mediation
Argumentation, trust and reputation
Argumentation and normative systems
Argumentation and human-computer interaction
Argumentation and machine learning
Argumentation and explainable AI
Computational properties of argumentation systems
Implementation of argumentation systems
Tools for supporting and teaching argumentation
Innovative applications based on argumentation
All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editors-in-Chief, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to rigorous peer-review by independent, anonymous expert referees. Papers should explain the addressed problem, the relevant state-of-the-art, the innovative idea, the results reported, and the relevance.

Queries regarding submissions can be made by contacting the Editors-in-Chief, whose decision is final.
