Welcome to the self-assembly group wiki. The purpose of this website is to serve as a common repository for papers and articles in the field of algorithmic self-assembly, as well as a technically oriented, easy to use wiki about self-assembly topics. Researchers in the area are invited and encouraged to contribute content including wiki articles, papers, and software. Please email mpatitz@self-assembly.net if you are interested in contributing.
Self-assembly
Self-assembly is the process during which a collection of relatively simple components, starting in a disorganized state, autonomously combine into a more complex structure. During self-assembly, there is no external guidance or direction, and the self-assembling components experience only local interactions and typically obey a simple set of rules that govern how they combine.
Self-assembling systems abound in nature, and include the formation of everything from snowflakes, to biological structures (such as viruses), to galaxies.
