Project Description

MONET and MONET2 are European Networks of Excellence connecting academics and industrialists interested in qualitative reasoning and model based systems and in transferring emergent artificial intelligence technologies into the commercial world. Education, within science and engineering, is one of the interests represented within the network.

The MONET network (Model based and Qualitative Reasoning Network) has organised a series of workshops, summer schools and conferences as well as a central repository for resources through the MONET web site.

Model based reasoning can be defined as the representation of the internal workings of a system in order to predict, simulate and explain the behaviour of the system from its structure, function, causality and behaviour of its components.

Qualitative reasoning is the non-numerical description of a system, preserving its behavioural properties and distinctions. Qualitative models aim to capture the important aspects of a system while suppressing much of the detail, e.g. by abstraction or approximation.

Keywords: qualitative reasoning, model based systems.

Project funded by European Community under the IST Programme, Networks of Excellence.
