Primes¶
- Hierarchical Decomposability
- The structural insight is robust: a multicellular organism, a software stack, an OSI network protocol, an organizational chart, a Linnean taxonomy, a materials-science substrate, and a mathematical proof all exhibit the same nested-coherence logic, a portability Lane (2005) traces through the convergent evolution of hierarchical structure in biological and artificial complex systems.
This sourceDevelops the case that eukaryotic cellular complexity — and the nested molecule → organelle → cell → tissue → organism hierarchy that follows — emerged from a single endosymbiotic event; treats hierarchical organization as a convergent structural consequence of bioenergetic constraints across biological and engineered complex systems.
