Keywords: high-level autonomy; rational anomaly handling; goal reasoning; anomaly handling; monitoring, control, and management of autonomous self-aware systems

Abstract:
In recent years, there has been strong interest in both reasoning about goal-identification and selection and metacognitive handling of anomalous situations. These two concerns are usually framed in terms of making agents more autonomous and flexible in dynamic and complex domains. Here, we wish to argue that there is a natural unifying perspective that includes both concerns and that may point the way to a yet more powerful kind of autonomy.
