AUTOPOIETIC MACHINE
a machine organized (defined as a unity)
as a network of processes of production, transformation and
destruction of components that produces the components which: i)
through their interactions and transformations regenerate and
realize the network of processes (relations) that produced them;
and ii) constitute it as a concrete unity in the space in which
they exist by specifying the topological domain of its
realization as such a network. (Maturana and Varela, 1979)
