Description:
Abstract The meta-pattern of the universe, first formulated by Rowlands and Diaz [2002], is a universal rewrite system (URS). This universal pattern finds a formulation in formal language theory centred around the fundamental semantic unit of the zero word or the zero string: 0 = XoX# 0. This is realized successively in the computational procedures of Turing machines, Post machines and Finite machines with two pushdown stores.
