1.1. Abstract

Holistic evolution (the concurrent evolution of control structure and morphology) and embodied evolution (the distribution of evolutionary function into asynchronous, autonomous robots operating in a task environment) offer a great deal of possibility to the field of evolutionary robotics. Both methodologies have principlistic and practical ramifications, but the most radical--and important--may lie in their confluence.
