The aim of the CSDMO 2022 Special Session is to bring together researchers interested in various cooperative problem solving techniques to share their experience, present current research results and discuss advanced techniques. Topics of submitted papers should focus on methods and applications where the tools and techniques exploiting collective computational intelligence are used to enhance, support or replace traditional approaches to decision making and solving optimization problems. In particular, we encourage authors of papers reporting on the real-life applications of the cooperative strategies to decision making and optimization. The scope of the CSDMO 2022 includes, but is not limited to the following topics:

• Computational intelligence
• Cooperative strategies for optimization
• Collective decision making
• Evolutionary and co-evolutionary algorithms and their applications
• Swarm intelligence
• Adaptive methods for decision making and optimizations
• Distributed optimization
• Agent-based modeling and problem solving
• Multi-agent optimization techniques and their applications
• Applications of intelligent techniques for decision making and optimization problems
• Knowledge-based systems
• Other related topics
