This chapter describes metareasoning in an image interpretation architecture called GRAVA (Grounded Reflective Adaptive Vision Architecture), where the goal is to produce good image interpretations under a wide range of environmental conditions. GRAVA employs metareasoning because it provides the mechanisms necessary to support two of the core problems of self-adaptive software—a mechanism for reasoning about the state of the computational system and a mechanism for making changes to it. These are referred to as introspective monitoring and metalevel control, respectively.Less
