automatised
Made to self-run
Automatised is the British spelling of automatized, the past tense and past participle of automatize—to make automatic or convert to automatic operation.
A process that has been automatised now runs without human intervention: The factory automatised its assembly line in the 1990s.
The spelling with -ise reflects British convention.
