Awareness is a Coordination Action (CA), supporting research under the FP7: FET Proactive Intiative:Self-Awareness in Autonomic Systems (Awareness). Awareness provide a supportive environment for research into self-awareness in autonomic systems, helping to create a well-connected community of researchers and conveying a coherent prospect to a wider scientific and technological audience.
The main objectives of AWARE are:
To encourage greater cooperation and exchange between projects funded under the FET Proactive Initiative AWARENESS through a range of activities To support researchers active in self-awareness and autonomic systems and encourage international collaboration.To help improve visibility of the grand challenges and methodological approaches identified by this community via a shared research agendaTo support training activities including summer schools and exchange activitiesTo produce and disseminate a repository of knowledge for researchers in this field (for improved synchronisation of concepts, terminology, approaches, etc)To initiate sustainable scientific forums including a range of workshops and consultation events relevant to research interestsTo promote the field more widely and generate interest by targeting publishers and national science funding agencies as well as commercial and industrial environments.

Ensembles for Optimisation Sep 1, 2015 - Aug 31, 2016
Optimisation – finding cost-effective or high-performing solutions - is a key economic driver for business today. However, academic literature on search-based optimisation techniques reflects an escalating arms race to produce highly specialized algo...

An Investigation of Hyper-Heuristic Methods: A New Generation of Problems-Solvers Nov 1, 2000 - Jul 31, 2004
The project made significant advances in discovering new automated methods for combining heuristics to solve bin-packing problems, outperforming results obtained by any individual heuristic.
Advances were made using learning classifier systems and...
