Taking inspiration from self-awareness in humans, this book
introduces the new notion of computational self-awareness as a
fundamental concept for designing and operating computing
systems. The basic ability of such self-aware computing systems
is to collect information about their state and progress,
learning and maintaining models containing knowledge that enables
them to reason about their behaviour. Self-aware computing
systems will have the ability to utilise this knowledge to
effectively and autonomously adapt and explain their behaviour,
in changing conditions.

building systems and applications. It will be of value to
researchers, professionals and graduate students in computer
science and engineering.
