Should Evolution Necessarily be Egolution?

چکیده
The origins and potential of self-developing complex processes is one of the most challenging topics today and will become one of the most important branches of science tomorrow. As a part of Earth’s biosphere we are familiar in practice with only one such a process – evolution. Although the evolution of biosphere on Earth may be studied in detail, there are no other known examples of natural self-developing complexity, which leaves us with our imagination and artificial life models on the way to the essence of autonomous systems’ organization and complication. One of the recently proposed instruments to cope with the lack of heterogeneous examples is radical reimplementation [13], where experience in some vague subject is variegated by achieving the key aims using the most unusual means. This article is focused on the radical reimplementation of selfish motive in evolution. Evolution is usually considered as a process driven by individual reproduction gain. Even altruistic phenomena like reciprocal altruism [6, 26] or eusociality [19] with its mechanisms of inclusive fitness [8] often thought to be evolved on the basis of “selfish gene” ground. There are many works devoted to the appearance of altruistic phenomena in egoistic world (see, e.g. [1, 4, 7, 9, 12, 14, 27, 31]). But I am familiar with only one, where altruism is considered as a preliminary inherent property of artificial life system, and the resulting model competes with the egoistic-based model in efficiency [5]. The current paper continues this competition: altruisticand selfish-based models with simple homogeneous population structure

Dynamic Objects – Support for Software Evolution in Distributed Object Systems
Our research focusses on distributed object systems where rather long-living services are offered to clients who engage in long-term bindings to the services. In such an enironment, there is an inherent need for a software evolution support that does not require the cancelling of client bindings when the server software is upgraded. Clients should not necessarily have to be interrupted and rebo...

متن کاملDiagnostic Challenges in Celiac Disease
1. The most important challenge in diagnosis of celiac disease is not-performing the diagnostic tests in suspected persons. Because of multi-organ damage and multiple manifestations of disease, diagnosis of celiac disease may be delayed. It seems general physicians should be aware about uncommon presentations of disease and indications of celiac tests. 2. The second most important challenge is ...
