The young field brings a powerful set of tools to the study of how high-level behavior can arise in systems governed by simple rules of interaction. Some of the fundamental questions include:What are the principles of evolution, learning, and growth that can be understood well enough to simulate as an information process?Can robots be built faster and more cheaply by mimicking biology than by the product design process used for automobiles and airplanes?How can we unify theories from dynamical systems, game theory, evolution, computing, geophysics, and cognition?The field has contributed fundamentally to our understanding of life itself through computer models, and has led to novel solutions to complex real-world problems across high technology and human society. This elite biennial meeting has grown from a small workshop in Santa Fe to a major international conference. This ninth volume of the proceedings of the international A-life conference reflects the growing quality and impact of this interdisciplinary scientific community. 001386627 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001386627 650_0 $$aBiological systems$$xComputer simulation$$vCongresses. 001386627 653__ $$aCOMPUTER SCIENCE/Artificial Intelligence 001386627 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001386627 7001_ $$aPollack, Jordan B. 001386627 852__ $$bebk 001386627 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/1429.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001386627 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001386627 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1386627$$pGLOBAL_SET 001386627 980__ $$aBIB 001386627 980__ $$aEBOOK 001386627 982__ $$aEbook 001386627 983__ $$aOnline
