Abstract
An apparatus and method for solving problems where a population is created and evolved to generate a result. While solving the problem, the architecture of entities in the population are altered. Each of said entities may include internally and externally invoked sub-entities. The externally invoked sub-entities are capable of having actions, invocations of sub-entities which are invoked internally, and material. Also, each sub-entity which is invoked internally is capable of including actions, invocations of internally invocable sub-entities, material provided to the externally invocable sub-entity, and material.
