The four sides of the immobile self-replication square
There are four necessary requirements on selfreplicativity for a gemstone metamaterial on-chip factory.
Needed are:
- replication capability
- building block availability
- energy supply
- blueprint data mobility (a mere digital access to a central copy is sufficient, some redundancy is advisable though for resiliency)
Not needed are:
- replicator mobility -- needed for the (outdated) molecular assembler concept
- sufficient adaptivity -- needed only by biological life
Blueprint data mobility
A note on "blueprint data mobility":
The biological example of DNA with a full nanomechanically encoded datastorage copy in
every single cell is ridiculously inefficient and nothing we would want to mimic in artificial systems for manufacturing.
