Emergent coding is a radical software development model disrupting how software is made. It realises a practical, global, software-components market populated with an AI agent workforce powerful enough that it has designed its entire AI agent workforce.
The technology boasts 3 families of 9 patents and a healthy patent strategy road-map over the next several years and into the next decade.
The software-components market is completely non-custodial with the global developer community both earning income selling components on the market, and constructing native applications (including new agents) rapidly and inexpensively from components purchased at the market.
The market incorporates an advanced electronic cash payments rail for highly-efficient, instant, international cash settlements which together with a distributed, integrated components catalogue, focuses profound competitive pressure at a components level to drive the market’s fast path for improvement.
The innovation underpinning this feasible software-components market is software components that can not be copied or reused. The essential change is a reversal of integration responsibility such that instead of fetching a component in the traditional sense, one now provides a construction-site to their component supplier and they integrate their component into your project. The result is a new method of directly producing native software.
Such a system is designed to construct all software for all platforms with the performance to out-compete and ultimately supersede current software development practices.
Emergent Studio is an IDE for expressing the desired project components, managing the project construction process, and returning the resulting project binary. With Studio, a developer can construct software from components, and also construct Component Agents to sell their own components on the market.
Our reimagined software component model allows you to capture your special capability in a product. The model centers on "agents" that automatically accept cash prepayment, form design agreements with project peers, sub-contract smaller features, and deliver project fragments. Currently, our components market comprising several thousand agents distributed across 4 main levels of abstraction (Behaviour, Systems, Data, Byte) provide the core resource for developers around the world to build their own component agents.
An integral part of the components market is an interactive catalogue of prices, data sheets, and contract specifications, implemented on a distributed Kademlia store to automatically scale as new agents peer with the network. Such an implementation also permits close binding with Studio and Agents to provide real-time access to Price data, Agent data sheets, and Contract specifications stored therein.
An ideal payment system for a global software components market requires direct cash payments regardless of supplier origin. Combining so many project payments when suppliers are distributed across so many countries is a formidable challenge were it not for the advent of peer-to-peer electronic cash technology. In addition to traditional payment models, our components market also utilises Bitcoin Cash payment channels to achieve instant, direct, cash payments with an efficiency and capacity today that is more than all global electronic transactions combined.
A distributed development system that doesn’t use source code forces a rethink on how we locate software defects and faults. Distributed Fault Tracing (DFT) is an emergent coding subsystem that conducts fault tracing in historically built software without project contributors exposing their special capability. The system can locate any of the potentially millions of contributors that is in breach-of-contract and forms the basis of the extraordinary accountability intrinsic to emergent coding.
