Abstract

The concepts of memetics and the development of meme media implementations have set the stage for a new generation of knowledge processing systems in which knowledge evolution may take place. When the evolution of knowledge goes beyond the imagination of humans, we will arrive at a new quality of human-computer co-operation.

The evolution of knowledge is of a particular interest in domains where the future is clearly unforeseeable, but where a rapid growth of knowledge is highly desirable. Medical therapy is such an area of a particularly great importance.

IntelligentPad technologies as a form of meme media implementation are used to formulate and represent medical therapy knowledge, to set up meme pools and to allow for the evolution of knowledge beyond human expectations.

This paper is reporting about the authors’ first steps and is intended to lay the cornerstone of a related research and development program.
