  2. Autonomic computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomic_computing

    Autonomy-oriented computation is a paradigm proposed by Jiming Liu in 2001 that uses artificial systems imitating social animals' collective behaviours to solve difficult computational problems. For example, ant colony optimization could be studied in this paradigm.

  3. Autonomous peripheral operation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_peripheral...

    In computing, autonomous peripheral operation is a hardware feature found in some microcontroller architectures to off-load certain tasks into embedded autonomous peripherals in order to minimize latencies and improve throughput in hard real-time applications as well as to save energy in ultra-low-power designs.

  4. Autonomous agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_agent

    "Autonomous agents are systems capable of autonomous, purposeful action in the real world." [2] According to Maes (1995): "Autonomous agents are computational systems that inhabit some complex dynamic environment, sense and act autonomously in this environment, and by doing so realize a set of goals or tasks for which they are designed." [3]

  5. Autonomous recording unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_Recording_Unit

    An autonomous recording unit (ARU) is a self-contained audio recording device that is deployed in marine or terrestrial environments for bioacoustical monitoring. The unit is used in both marine and terrestrial environments to track the behavior of animals and monitor their ecosystems.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_computer_science

    In programming language theory, semantics is the field concerned with the rigorous mathematical study of the meaning of programming languages. It does so by evaluating the meaning of syntactically valid strings defined by a specific programming language, showing the computation involved. In such a case that the evaluation would be of ...

    A language for specifying state transition systems, and is commonly used to create formal models of the effects of actions on the world. [6] Action languages are commonly used in the artificial intelligence and robotics domains, where they describe how actions affect the states of systems over time, and may be used for automated planning.
