 |  Self-Generated Program  | Determined by some factors in the interaction between the system and its environment.   |
 |  Historical note  | Concept of self-programming is old (J. von Neumann one of the first to talk about self-replication in machines). However, few if any proposals for how to achieve this has been fielded.  [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Von_Neumann_universal_constructor|Von Neumann's universal constructor on Wikipedia]]   |
