Abstract
Content

A logical connection between the survivability of living systems and the complexity of their behavior (equivalently, mental complexity) has been established. This connection is an important intermediate result of continuing research on mathematical models that could constitute a unified representation of the evolution of both living and non-living systems. Earlier results of this research were reported in several prior NASA Tech Briefs articles, the two most relevant being “Characteristics of Dynamics of Intelligent Systems” (NPO- 21037), NASA Tech Briefs, Vol. 26, No. 12 (December 2002), page 48; and “Self-Supervised Dynamical Systems” (NPO- 30634) NASA Tech Briefs, Vol. 27, No. 3 (March 2003), page 72.
