  • Synthesis of Formconcept0.786
    Christopher Alexander’s early method that decomposes design problems into a hierarchical tree of requirements and synthesizes form as a balance of forces.
  • Modern Synthesisframework0.722
    The standard evolutionary theory integrating Darwinian selection with Mendelian genetics; paper argues it needs expansion with MCA.
  • A method described in chapter 2 of Vol 2, used to evaluate whether a proposed action enhances or damages the existing wholeness.
  • Transformations that break the wholeness, creating jaggedness and preventing life; cannot reach the descendants of nothingness.
  • Concise statement that underscores the necessity of the generated process for real complexity.
  • Traditional evolutionary framework focused on genetic mutation and selection; paper argues for expansion to include physiological and cellular problem-solving without requiring goal-directedness at large scale.
  • Type of abstraction map where node information is computed from non-overlapping neuron sets
  • Sloman's concept: organism-specific or species-specific construction kits for development and control, layered atop fundamental kit.
