The Infiniteness of Open Ended Evolution (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Andras, P. (2016). The Infiniteness of Open Ended Evolution. In OEE2: The Second Workshop on Open-Ended Evolution

Biological and social systems are considered as a flux of interacting components that transiently participate in interactions with other system components as part of the system. This suggests that any simulated system undergoing open ended evolution... Read More about The Infiniteness of Open Ended Evolution.

The same neuron may play different functional roles in the neural circuits to which it belongs. For example, neurons in the Tritonia pedal ganglia may participate in variable phases of the swim motor rhythms [1]. While such neuronal functional variab...
