Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

Computer simulations of a "spin glass" model for the origin of biological information are discussed. Selection is found to occur among a wide diversity of possible species, and in addition competition, adaptation, and hysteresis are all exhibited.
