  abstract = {This chapter focusses on the relevancy of implementations of software
	systems in which agent technology was actually used in agent-oriented
	conferences and journals. It discusses the discrepancy between the
	stated aims of agent research with regard to agent applications,
	and the reality as found in many (general) agent conferences as well
	as journals. We demonstrate this discrepancy by analysing how implementations
	of software systems that employed agent technology are represented
	in publications, both in form of conference as well as journal papers.
	We analyse some agent related conferences and journals, and look
	at the distribution of application papers at past conferences/journal
	issues. In order to lay foundations for a discussion of the reasons
	for this inconsistency as well as conclusions that can be drawn from
	it, we analyse relevant stakeholders for agent application papers.
	The aim of this chapter is to provide a basis for discussing the
	state and status of agent applications in research oriented conferences
	and journals.},
