In order to have an autonomous system (or at least semi-autonomous) some ingredients are necessary. The first one is information or knowledge. And the second one is how to use that information to allow the self-diagnosis, and self-reconfiguration of a system. In this seminar an overview of different information sources (data modelling, ontologies, libraries, ... regarding to process systems) is initially presented. After some methodologies that use information to pursue a target are commented.

Finally a devised draft proposal of an architecture to integrate "information & use" is commented. The purpose of the seminar is to open a discussion on how to approach a methodology that (using what's already available) can be generic enough to be applied to the generation of autonomous systems.
