The difference of status between internal and external measurement. (English) Zbl 0979.92500

Summary: Questions resulting from biologically motivated computing and/or the investigation of emergent properties can lead to the problem that any biological process must be indefinite and/or paradoxical. However, this type of problem is derived not from the nature of living things but from describing the measurement process consistently. Also, the measurement process can be proved neither obeying a definite rule nor something ignored completely. We distinguish internal measurement from external measurement. From the perspective of internal measurement one can constitute a metaphoric model by which one can understand ontological process in which both generation and degeneracy of inconsistency are compehended. This can lead to the understating of emergent property or origin. Information generation can be sketched in the form of the degeneracy of symmetry from asymmetrical processes.
