Replikon Prime

To instantiate a first new

anthropo-auxilio-re-productive, anthropienergized, anthropimotivated, anthropidirected universal constructor,

a human-powered (as in the cutting action), human moved (as in the traversing action(s)), human-controlled universal constructor or machine-tool unable to reproduce without the human operator,

which I call

a Replikon,

from an existing

anthropo-auxilioproductive, anthropienergized, anthropimotivated, anthropidirected universal constructor,

a human-powered (as in the cutting action), human moved (as in all traverse actions), human controlled universal constructor unable to produce without the human operator,

it is only neccessary, and is sufficient, to begin a process of autocompilation analgous to computer compiler autocompilation,

starting with two such

anthropo=auxilioproductive, anthropienergized, anthropimotivated, anthropidirected universal constructors,

once they are built and assembled

by other means,

and from one remove a part

for duplication with the other,

beginning with

emulation of the finishing cut, and

working backwards from there to severing stock;

Further,

To instantiate a more economical

suite of suchlike similar constructors,

a Replikon Suite of enmasse-poly-anthropo-auxilio-reproductive universal constructors complementing each other to universality,

of rank r, where r is the number of constructors in the suite,

between r+1 and 2r constructors suffice and are needed,

and the number depends on how the universality obtains,

on how the workload is shared between the constructors,

in complicated ways;

a lot of exploring could be done here;

much of it is waste;

Further,

Such a suite is rank-r-productive, and of course, with r greater than one,

assuming labor is available,

is more productive than the earlier constructor, the Replikon.

Further,

IFF, that is, if, and only if,

universal constructors or machine-tools are reducible to T basic forms,

e.g. mill, lathe, 2 types of grinder, jig borer, drill press, etc.,

non-redundantly, or with minimal redundancy, then

for a suite of those T basic forms,

a suite, incidentally of rank T, like many other suites of rank T,

but for this particular suite only,

the minmax T-hedronical-poly-anthrop-auxilio-re-productive universal constructor suite,

operable by, and employing

T operators, is

the Replikon Prime.
