Abstract: The invention of the "autogeneric system" in the form of <<dada 83>> is a closed recursive manufacturing cycle. Present technology is probably sufficient to build fifth generation computing systems, but the actual construction of inductive and deductive logic machines awaits the discovery of real methods. The working model <<dada 83>> operates by the relentless application of directed trial and error. The operation of <<dada 83>> has been directed to produce "better" versions of <<dada 83>>.The copyrighted version of <<dada 83>> can be used to manufacture microcomputer systems, and process control systems. The value of "autogeneric systems" rests in the inherent ability to create or manufacture complex systems on demand. The ability to incorporate expert knowledge into reusable modules allows a multiplication of the efforts of experts. The error detection allows real telecommunications networks to be used to create a distributed computer.
