What I find really exciting about this is the use of the evolutionary algorithm (an optimization algorithm inspired by biological evolution, which uses mechanisms such as mutation, recombination, and selection. This Darwin'ian approach to problem solving is amazing in itself. The early work of Turing and the chaos theory researchers are leading into ever more useful models for understanding how nature is self-organsing over time. It's use in applied physics research like this is inspiring new approaches to problem solving.
Glen,
Thanks for the link.
