This book constitutes the thoroughly reviewed post-proceedings of the 8th International Workshop on Argumentation in Multi-Agent Systems, ArgMas 2011, held in Taipei, Taiwan in May 2011 in association with the 10th International Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems (AAMAS 2011). The 8 revised full papers taken from ArgMAS 2011. Also included are 5 invited papers based on presentations on argumentation at the AAMAS 2011 main conference. All together the 13 papers included in the book give a representative overview on current research on argumentation in multi-agent systems. The papers are listed alphabetically by first author within three thematic topics: foundations and theory; argumentation and dialogue; and applications.

This text focuses on the practical aspects of crystal structure analysis, and provides the necessary conceptual framework for understanding and applying the technique. By choosing an approach that does not put too much emphasis on the mathematics involved, the book gives practical advice on topics such as growing crystals, solving and refining structures, and understanding and using the results. The technique described is a core experimental method in modern structural chemistry, and plays an ever more important role in the careers of graduate students, postdoctoral and academic staff in chemistry, and final-year undergraduates.
Much of the material of the first edition has been significantly updated and expanded, and some new topics have been added. The approach to several of the topics has changed, reflecting the book's new authorship, and recent developments in the subject.

The volume LNAI 13054 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 22th Annual Conference Towards Autonomous Robotic Systems, TAROS 2021, held in Lincoln, UK, in September 2021.*The 45 full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 66 submissions. Organized in the topical sections "Algorithms" and "Systems", they discuss significant findings and advances in the following areas: artificial intelligence; mechatronics; image processing and computer vision; special purpose and application-based systems; user interfaces and human computer interaction. * The conference was held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
