The book is devoted to mathematics and computer modelling of information processing in biological systems and feedback organization of evolutionary processes. The most important questions answered by the author are related to the adaptation machinery in the living organisms and their systems under varying environmental conditions, and the way in which the evolution creates recognizing abilities of such organisms. Moreover, the author presents his model of evolutionary transformation of recognizing abilities into the intellectual system of human beings. In the evolutionary modelling three main issues are considered: models of molecular and genetic information systems, models of the general rules of the evolution, and evolutionary and genetic algorithms. In the first class, the author discusses models of population dynamics of RNA, models of hypercycles, and models of self-reproduction. General models of evolution contain population genetics rules including techniques based on cellular automata. The last class of models gives an optimization tool based on the evolutionary mechanisms to find the solution of difficult computational problems. The last but not least group of problems considered in the book deals with evolutionary roots of human intelligence. The tools discussed in the book include population dynamics equations, neural networks, cellular automata, algorithms of artificial life, planning algorithms and methods of self-organization and self-replication.
