Abstract
This chapter discusses the importance of assessing self-awareness of a system and different approaches and aspects on how to enable a human as well as a machine to perform such an assessment. The chapter also elaborates on the different requirements and constraints for an assessment. Furthermore, this chapter outlines how these requirements and constraints limit the accuracy of defining the capabilities of an assessed system and the corresponding degree of self-awareness.
