Evolution of Information Processing Systems (eBook, PDF)

An Interdisciplinary Approach for a New Understanding of Nature and Society
Redaktion: Haefner, Klaus

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This publication proposes a new paradigm: Information processing is considered to be the essential feature of all structures on earth. Evolution of information processing systems is considered from an interdisciplinary point of view. This approach allows a new understanding of nature. The book gives insight into information, information processing and information processing systems at the physical, genetical, neural, social, technical and socio-technical level of evolution.
