Inside communication in nanostructured evolutionary automata — nanophysics and an information concept for viable technologies Available to Purchase

On the background of previous research work concerning a nanoscale approach to a theory of biomimetic evolutionary systems and biomimetic information processing it is shown that strictly formal‐logic based, “hard‐wired” electronic hardware misses the very physical nature of bioevolvability. A new, physics‐base concept of information, and a new concept of hierarchical, open and dissipative “evolware”, much like biosystems “wetware”, are required for developing an actually biomimetic “evolutionary automata” technology, but a basic inter‐ and intra‐level communication problem is shown to affect the whole automaton's nanostructure. The problem consists in the difficulty of setting forth causal links bridging the whole hierarchy, from the nanoscale up to the macroscopic structure‐functions.
