The algorithmic origins of life.
Although it has been notoriously difficult to pin down precisely what is it that makes life so distinctive and remarkable, there is general agreement that its informational aspect is one key property, perhaps the key property. The unique informational narrative of living systems suggests that life may be characterized by context-dependent causal influences, and, in particular, that top-down (or...
متن کاملAlgorithmic Feasibility of Observing Artificial Life Evolution
An observation process is a fundamental implicit component of the simulation based studies on artificial-evolutionary systems (AES) by which time-varying entities are identified and their behavior is observed to uncover higher-level “emergent” phenomena. In this paper, we analyze algorithmic feasibility of implementing an observation process and consequent automated discovery of the entities an...
متن کاملAssemblage of the vertical: commercial drones and algorithmic life
This paper takes up the increasingly popular topic of drones – including unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS), remotely piloted aircraft (RPA), and a vast panoply of commercial drones and copters – to argue that our analysis should lie not so much on drones as objects, but as assemblages of the vertical. Drones, I argue, constitute a socio-technical assemblage o...
متن کاملLife as Thermodynamic Evidence of Algorithmic Structure in Natural Environments
In evolutionary biology, attention to the relationship between stochastic organisms and their stochastic environments has leaned towards the adaptability and learning capabilities of the organisms rather than toward the properties of the environment. This article is devoted to the algorithmic aspects of the environment and its interaction with living organisms. We ask whether one may use the fa...
متن کاملParallel Genetic Algorithm Using Algorithmic Skeleton
Algorithmic skeleton has received attention as an efficient method of parallel programming in recent years. Using the method, the programmer can implement parallel programs easily. In this study, a set of efficient algorithmic skeletons is introduced for use in implementing parallel genetic algorithm (PGA).A performance modelis derived for each skeleton that makes the comparison of skeletons po...
