چکیده
This paper gives a short overview of Artiicial Life research. The paper answers the questions of how Artiicial Life started, how far we have gone, and where we are heading. The paper emphasizes the emergence process and the dynamic embodiment with the environment as the new concepts introduced by Artiicial Life. In the paper the major research works in Artiicial Life are introduced by categorizing them into wet-ware synthesis, software synthesis, hardware synthesis and philosophical issues.

The Scientiic Status of Artiicial Life
The eld of artiicial life is questioned on the grounds of its scientiic status, its object of study, and its methodological standards; the concepts \artiicial life" and \science" are discussed. It is argued that, as an area of inquiry, artiicial life is an extension of biology but, as a simulation tool, it is more general. A distinction between analytic and synthetic statements is introduced in...

متن کاملLimitations of Scientiic Ontology
Artiicial life is a new multidisciplinary science which is emerging from established practices in artiicial intelligence, computational biology, and cybernetics. It is argued in this paper that conventional scientiic concepts of being and existence, i.e. ontology, which underpin most of our attempts to create artiicial life and intelligent systems, are inadequate to deal with these issues. It i...
متن کاملThe Artiicial Life Roots of Artiicial Intelligence
Behavior-oriented AI is a scientiic discipline that studies how behavior of agents emerges and becomes intelligent and adaptive. Success of the eld is deened in terms of success in building physical agents that are capable of maximising their own self-preservation in interaction with a dynamically changing environment. The paper addresses this artiicial life route towards artiicial intelligence...
متن کاملArtiicial Biology
Artiicial Life spans a continuum from engineering to biology. Biological organisms are inspiring both as existence proofs for the tractability of many engineering problems and as testaments to the innovation and power of evolution as a sort of \blind" engineer. The middle of the continuum is occupied by researchers trying to synthesize life in novel substrates. Far from the nightmares of Franke...
