- Self-replicating_machine abstract "A self-replicating machine is a construct that can autonomously reproduce itself from raw environmental materials, thus exhibiting self-replication in a way analogous to that found in nature. The concept of self-replicating machines has been advanced and examined by Homer Jacobsen, Edward F. Moore, Freeman Dyson, John von Neumann and in more recent times by K. Eric Drexler in his book on nanotechnology, Engines of Creation and by Robert Freitas and Ralph Merkle in their review Kinematic Self-Replicating Machines which provided the first comprehensive analysis of the entire replicator design space. The future development of this technology has underlain several plans involving the mining of moons and asteroid belts for ore and other materials, the creation of lunar factories, and even the construction of solar power satellites in space. The possibly misnamed von Neumann probe is a theoretical example of a self-replicating machine; Von Neumann also worked on what he called the universal constructor, a self-replicating machine that would operate amidst cellular automata.A self-replicating machine relies on conventional large-scale technology and automation. Certain idiosyncratic terms are occasionally found in the literature; e.g., the term "clanking replicator" was once used by Drexler to distinguish macroscale replicating systems from the microscopic nanorobots or "assemblers" that nanotechnology may make possible; the term is informal and is rarely used. Replicators have also been named "von Neumann machines" after John von Neumann, who first rigorously studied the idea. This term ("von Neumann machine") is less specific and also refers to a completely unrelated computer architecture that von Neumann proposed; Von Neumann used the term universal constructor to describe such self-replicating machines.Historians of machine tools, even before the numerical control era, sometimes figuratively said machine tools were a unique class of machines because they can "reproduce themselves" by copying all their parts. Implicit in these discussions is a human's directing the cutting processes (or at least planning and programming the machines) and then assembling the parts; a human would do the same for RepRaps, which are another class of machines sometimes mentioned in reference to such non-autonomous "self-replication".".
