Self-Evolvability for Physical and Chemical Systems

  • Chapter
Self-Evolvable Systems

Part of the book series: Understanding Complex Systems ((UCS))

  • 1234 Accesses

Abstract

Self-evolvability potentialities for physical systems are presented using differential models, operads and entropy criteria.

Schemas enumeration, separation trees, process synthesis, cyclic operations, dendritic growth, biochemical substrates for technical information processing, circuits and antennas are the studied systems.
