Available methods for getting towards the necessary parallelity to produce macroscopic amounts of products
- bottom up: fully parallel (and hierarchical) self assembly of atomically precise chemically pre-produced building blocks
- top down: conventional photolithographic methods (MEMs)
- exponential assembly (the glue in the middle?)
- ultra compact self replication (outdated)
- medium compact self replication on the second assembly level
- self emerging highly distributed self-replicative capabilities
Bottom up
There are at least three independent orthogonal axes where technological capability can be judged by and scaled along. These are:
- Convergent selfassembly levels
(like experimentally demonstrated in SDN: bricks to blocks then blocks to multiblocks) - Material stiffness
(SDN, protein, stiffer stuff) - Degree of introduction of positional assembly aspects
