Self-organization in nonequilibrium systems has been known for over 50 years. Under nonequilibrium conditions, the state of a system can become unstable and a transition to an organized structure can occur. Such structures include oscillating chemical reactions, spatiotemporal patterns in chemical systems, AND spatiotemporal patterns of ME, CME and ToF formation from elemental relational sets. Because entropy and free-energy dissipating irreversible processes generate and maintain these structures, these have been called dissipative structures. Current research on the evolution of complex relational networks has yet to investigate and describe the self-organizing aspects of RFT networks that are due to the time evolution to states of lower and higher entropic production. Investigation of states of entropy, negetropy and entaxy will give us a fuller understanding of the complexity of biological organisms and their evolution.
