Vast assemblies of nanorobots adhere in tessellated arrangements. The tessellations change with digitally controlled changes in the overall structure of the individual bots. With changing tessellations come changes in the macroscopic surface properties of the assembly, including rigidity, coefficient
of friction, viscosity, heat capacity, phase, and general utility in a dynamic environment.

nay. There's just no other words to describe a tessellation. Its like ahh... a weave? |
|
|
Yes OK so you can have a material with dynamic properties dependant on the arrangement of its constituent material(s). Is this a new thought? |
|
|
Boy, they should've had this at the international workshop, instead of all those chemists, physicists and engineers. |

Thanks [waugs], but I get put off reading any tract which begins "We explore new compact communication, which we call Goar." |
|

Click the "generate another one" link at the top, then. |

I don't get this. I mean I get the idea but there isn't really an invention. Maybe if there was a suggestion at what a nano-liquid could be used for or something... |
|

That's true but I'm sure this theory has been baked already. I know I read something similar to this in "Prey" by Michael Crichton, but I'm sure I heard it somewhere else too. |

I wish I could hang out and play, but my pedagogical content knowlege is apparently lacking. |
