Robert Rosen’s approach to systems, complexity, order, circularity, organization, structure, control, and information, chiefly coincides with our ontological model of the world as the global networks of networks of causally interacted (interrelated) processes.
J Rosen said:
Nothing is "caused" until various entities interact, and the specific relations under whom any interaction takes place will determine the outcome/effects.''
The issue here has to do with the nature of specific relations and interactions that occur in reality when natural complexity is involved.
Many do not believe that the aggregation processes involved in biological expression, at any level, is reversible.
How much of your ontological framework is depending on the assertion that “The world is becoming active because it produces reversible processes; reversible processes organize the world?”
This assertion is stated in the introduction to
20th WCP: The Ultimate of Reality: Reversible Causality
My feeling is that your technology does NOT depend on the assertion that all natural processes are reversible.
