Abstract/OtherAbstract:
In this paper, I am dealing with some epistemological aspects of what Christopher Langton (1989) and some other scientists have been calling recently "artificial life", whose history, in fact, is far older. I want to take a view on the origin, further developments and latest issues of these models, and try to point out the major philosophical and epistemological problems arising with them.
