In the wake of Google&#8217;s Tenth Birthday Competition, this talk describes how innovation networks apply principles found in life&#8217;s origins and evolution to &#8220;processing innovation.&#8221; Debates about how novelty emerged in the origin of life and its evolution toward complexity demand revising assumptions that we&#8217;ve taken for granted. Steven Jay Gould said that &#8220;Darwinism&#8221; misrepresents Darwin.<\/p>\n<p>A more complete interpretation of Darwin&#8217;s theory of evolution could inspire new problem-solving methods with a range of practical applications, from multi-agent systems able to learn and improve their performance to cross-disciplinary decision support systems designed to address environmental sustainability challenges. Objective. To discuss nine principles of innovation networks and the problem-solving method they support.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\nA very interesting talk!
