ACM Transactions on Autonomous and Adaptive Systems

Aims & Scope

TAAS addresses research on autonomous and adaptive systems being undertaken by an increasingly interdisciplinary research community -- and provides a common platform under which this work can be published and disseminated.

TAAS encourages contributions aimed at supporting the understanding, development, and control of such systems and of their behaviors.

TAAS addresses research on autonomous and adaptive systems being undertaken by an increasingly interdisciplinary research community - and provides a common platform under which this work can be published and disseminated.

TAAS encourages contributions aimed at supporting the understanding, development, and control of such systems and of their behaviors.

Contributions are expected to be based on sound and innovative theoretical models, algorithms, engineering and programming techniques, infrastructures and systems, or technological and application experiences.
