摘要
We consider the relevance of computer hardware and simulations not only to science and technology but also to social life. Evolutionary processes are part of all we know, from the physical and inanimate world to the simplest or most complex biological system. Evolution is manifested by land mark discoveries which deeply affect our social life. Demographic pressure, demand for improved living standards and devastation of the natural environment pose new and complex challenges. We believe that the implementation of new computational models based on the latest scientific methodology can provide a reasonable chance of overcoming today's social problems. To ensure this goal, however, we need a change of mindset, placing findings obtained from modern science above traditional concepts and beliefs. In particular, the type of modeling used with success in computational sciences must be extended to allow simulations of novel models for social life.
