Biological analogies in manufacturing

Abstract Biological organisms and manufacturing facilities are both examples of complex systems that exist in changing environments. It may be that some of the lessons that have been learned from nature are applicable to engineering. The purpose of this paper is to examine analogies from nature and to discuss their relevance to engineering systems. In particular systems that exhibit emergent behaviours or are subject to evolutionary forces are studied.
