Review text

This paper provides a description for mathematicians of a model for complex biological systems that have memory. The model is based upon category theory, using in particular fibrations, sketches and completions. The paper gives the relevant definitions and shows how they can be combined to model a system that is able to piece together its experiences. A presentation for non-mathematicians was given in the authors' paper, Bull. Math. Biol. 49, 13--50 (1987; Zbl 0619.92001).
