Physical world as an internet of things

Abstract	A concept of the physical Universe that does not address the issue of the difference in the behavior of dead and living matter is not just incomplete, it simply cannot be correct. We have developed a cellular automaton model of the Universe where the appearing material configurations share the information control under global content-addressable holographic memory. As a result, biological information processing is organized as Cloud Computing [1]. With the rise of the Internet there is no doubts that such an organization is much more efficient; other control arrangements for material things may be simply not workable. The Internet construction of the physical world is a sort of realization of quantum computing. The viability of this construction is most dramatically revealed by the phenomenon of quantum nonlocality -- instantaneous non-signaling correlation of distant events. Nonlocality is intrinsic to the sliced processing of holography, which brings in instantaneous interactions through common memory rather than performs gradual signaling through message passing. Traditional thinking cannot accommodate nonlocality into the paradigm of the physical world. At the moment, the given construction presents the one and only available operational explanation of this inconceivable phenomenon. The holographic Internet milieu sets up different control patterns for molecular structures depending on their size. Small particles get immediate holographic feedbacks by returning beam establishing an interactive holography environment for quantum mechanics behavior [2]. The feedbacks for macromolecules ("aperiodic crystals" [3]) are richer as their highly developed conformational oscillations furnish access keys to the holographic storage; so, in contrast to small particles, the behavior of macromolecules is governed additionally by signals from the bulk of the holographic memory. Drastic distinctions in the behavior of dead and living objects are due to different feedbacks for small and large molecules produced by the Internet infrastructure of the material world. Functioning of complex systems ordinarily requires inflows of two types of entities: information signals and actuation impetuses. The latter aspect in relation to the motility of macromolecules has been considered in [4]. According to [3], the purpose of feeding is not the acquisition of energy but intake of "negative entropy". The essential point in metabolism is freeing from all the entropy that an organism cannot help producing while alive. The primary hypothesis about the acquisition of energy by living organisms is that the inside burning of the sugar in one way or another provides the motive power to the muscle. Yet the amount of energy obtained with the food does not seem enough for the work the organisms perform; for example, some beetles would need daily intake of food twice their own mass. Furthermore, it is not known how exactly the energy-providing reactions are coupled to the mechanical precision and how the control signals arriving at macromolecules are transformed into purposeful actions [5]. The total amount of power required by all the living organisms on Earth can be commensurable (within some orders of magnitude) to the total amount of power used by modern human civilization. In corresponding terms, it can be said that living organisms consume the ultimate source of energy - solar radiation in the form of "biomass". This common view is confronted considering a new source of energy for biochemical motions by relating it to the external clock of the physical Internet. This kind of energy can be extracted from the pushing pulses of this clocking mechanism, the so-called "hot-clocking" effect [6], and concentrated by the mode of the parametric resonance [4]. This kind of surmised powering for the biochemical activities effectively intermingles information and energy processes. Figuratively speaking, the proposed machinery can be seen as USB port functionality incorporated in the quantum computer of the Universe. For the Internet of the physical world the considered clocking mechanism introduces an unexpected triggering condition at its working frequency of $10^{11}$ Hz. Actually, it has been noticed that electromagnetic waves in the corresponding millimeter range produce various harmless, but otherwise unexplainable, biological effects that cannot be understood either in terms of heating or through direct action of electric fields; "it follows that the electromagnetic wave acts as a trigger to events for which the biological system is already prepared"[7]. Since biological objects operate under $10^{11}$ Hz clock cycle they might be affected by a novel environmental factor -- gigahertz radiation from the vast spread of cellular phones. Conventional physics does not foresee how this radiation can influence biological objects, while the massive epidemiological studies would take decades [8]. In the meantime, it is important to keep in mind that HF electromagnetic radiation could interfere with biological processes as long as they are driven by $10^{11}$ Hz clock of Cloud Computing.
