Metareasoning: Thinking about Thinking

The twenty-first century is experiencing a renewed interest in an old idea within artificial intelligence that goes to the heart of what it means to be both human and intelligent. This idea is that much can be gained by metareasoning, the process of reasoning about reasoning itself. This workshop examined the various aspects of metareasoning including metalevel control, introspective monitoring and models of self and their role in single agent and multiagent applications.
