Of Species and Software: What Is a Dependency Graph?

Wisnton Ewert has developed a model to explain the pattern of similarities in different organisms which mimics how computer applications inherit software from a diverse range of lower-level modules. Read More ›

BIO-Complexity Presents Better Model than Common Ancestry for Explaining Pattern of Nature

One of the central pillars of the standard evolutionary model is the belief that all living species evolved from a common ancestor through a gradually unfolding tree of life. Read More ›
