Organisms and societies are self-organized by local interactions and autonomously driven under energy and substance metabolism.
Technology for constructing and controlling such complex forms in a self-organizing manner is one of the ultimate goals of engineering.
Our laboratory is developing a “non-equilibrium thermodynamic simulator”, and is aiming to build a basic simulation that examines the conditions for continuous dissipative structures and the conditions for complex evolution.
As a future step, I would like to apply this non-equilibrium thermodynamic simulator as a basis for “biomicromachine design simulator”, “civilization / society simulation”, and “elucidation of mechanism of emergence of intelligent system”.
