0 to make a process in a factory or office operate by machines or computers, in order to reduce the amount of work done by humans and the time taken to do the work: --
Massive investment is needed to automate the production process.
1 to make something operate automatically by using machines or computers: --
2 to use machines or computers instead of people to do a particular task, especially in a factory or office: --
All of the factory's operations have been automated.
The software automates many processes, increasing reliability and reducing the time involved with each order.
This is clearly important since most robots and automated machines are defined around task requirements.
Through an automated mirror system, monochromatic light was directed to any one of the three panels; this constituted the test light.
Traditional automated negotiation mechanisms do not facilitate the exchange of this information.
In the multi-agent literature, various interaction and decision mechanisms for automated negotiation have been proposed and studied.
In general, our experts felt that the use of an automated coherence measure would be a valuable instructional aid.
Claim variables are inferred using an inference procedure, which may not necessarily be automated, from data item values.
This flexible, open-ended approach to visual style automates qualitative rerepresentations, learns from the data set unsupervised, and modifies assessments according to design context.
We accomplish automated verification using a temporal logic and model-checking techniques, allowing us to reuse existing algorithms and results for trace effect verification.
