The increasing adoption of methods from computational intelligence,
biologically inspired computing, and optimization in engineering
disciplines such as mechatronics or production enables the development
of a new class of autonomous systems. These systems often possess
abilities which are best describe by the phrase Self-X: Self-
Optimization, Self-Coordination, Self-Healing, Self-Repair and many
more.
These properties have in common that they shift decision making from
humans to the technical systems. This shift has two possible benefits.
First, decision made during the design of the system can be delayed
until operation and thus the system is able to react more flexible to
different application requirements. Second, the human effort in
managing such systems can be reduced and the corresponding systems
are more cost-efficient. This special session is dedicated to this new
type of systems in the various engineering applications.
The special Session addresses the following topics:
-------------------------------Application Examples of Self-X and
Autonomous Control--------------------------------------------------
