Formal models of argumentation have received much attention of late. This has resulted in various applications of argumentation, which benefit from the advances on the theoretical aspects of argumentation, while highlighting new theoretical issues. Further,
applications of argumentation often branch into other areas of AI. The Arg&App Workshop series seeks to bring together researchers working on the definition and evaluation of methods in these applications, as well as the development of software therefor, which
has often been deployed in real-world contexts. </div>
