Abstract In the pursuit of emergent digital sentience, traditional static programming paradigms fail to meet the demands of systems that must self-replicate, adapt, and evolve. Inspired by biological mitosis, we propose a novel computational architecture—Digital Cellular Mitosis (DCM)—which enables software units, or Digital Cells (DCs), to replicate sustainably within a dynamic ecosystem. This. DCM bridges … Continue reading Toward a Self-Evolving Software Architecture: The Sustainable Digital Cellular Mitosis Framework
