In 1802 William Paley formulated the first known teleological argument depicting machines producing other machines, [13] suggesting that the question of who originally made a watch was rendered moot if it were demonstrated that the watch was able to manufacture a copy of itself. [14] Scientific study of self-reproducing machines was anticipated by John Bernal as early as 1929 [15] and by mathematicians such as Stephen Kleene who began developing recursion theory in the 1930s. [16] Much of this latter work was motivated by interest in information processing and algorithms rather than physical implementation of such a system, however. In the course of the 1950s, suggestions of several increasingly simple mechanical systems capable of self-reproduction were made — notably by Lionel Penrose. [17] [18] Von Neumann's kinematic model [ edit ] A 2016 article in The New Yorker noted that replicators may be a "metaphor for the distant endpoint of the Industrial Revolution". [14] They point out that technology as presented in Star Trek: The Next Generation changes the moral equation of being human, because nearly anything you want can be created with a request. [14] When the USS Voyager was pulled to the Delta Quadrant, it became clear that replicator technology was unknown to some of the indigenous peoples of that region.

YAML-based workflow abstracts away the complexity of building your SDG pipelines. Describe the parameters and requirements of your scene using simple syntax to generate the data without writing extensive lines of code. Replicator needs to integrate with the defense industrial base and to ramp up drone production. It should leverage commercial technologies, according to Greenwalt. Echoing this point, Clark said that the DoD needs to show its interest and investment in drones as a signal to the industrial base to increase production. Customizable, open APIs for randomizers and annotators let you build your own domain-specific workflow to programmatically generate diverse training data sets. Romulan replicators left distinctive patterns in the molecular structure of items they produced. ( TNG: " The Mind's Eye") Type 6A shuttlecraft were equipped with a replicator, but did not solely rely on it for emergencies and so also carried a supply of emergency rations. ( LD: " Where Pleasant Fountains Lie")

Power would be provided by a "canopy" of solar cells supported on pillars. The other machinery could run under the canopy. In 2374, the drink replicator at Quark's experienced a malfunction. To fix it, Quark submitted an emergency maintenance request in the morning, and was assured by Chief Miles O'Brien that Rom would be fixing it right away, however, Rom, in turn, promised Quark that Nog would fix it before the end of the day, however Nog never arrived, but in his place, Jadzia Dax showed up. Quark felt that that task was below her, and fixing a replicator was " work for a mechanic, a repairman, a lowly engineer." Quark later confessed to Odo that, " those hands weren't meant to be poking around inside a filthy drink replicator," as they observed her pulling a green goo from the replicator's insides. ( DS9: " Valiant") Greenwalt said the initiative should focus on “three things: money, production lines at full capacity and how to deliver these.” Replicators aboard Starfleet vessels would not produce fatal poisons. ( VOY: " Death Wish") Furthermore, replicators had biofilters which automatically screened out all contaminants. ( DS9: " Babel") Although clothing could be replicated for general wear, they would not allow non-Starfleet crewmembers to replicate official Starfleet uniforms. ( VOY: " Caretaker") They produced synthehol versions of alcoholic drinks by default, but they could easily be manually readjusted through their control panel to make real alcohol instead.

Recent research [7] has begun to categorize replicators, often based on the amount of support they require. Replicators were capable of producing food as fresh and tasty as non-replicated foodstuffs, inorganically materialized out of patterns used by the transporters. ( TNG: " Lonely Among Us") Most people found replicated foods and drinks to taste exactly the same as "real" food, although some people claimed to be able to tell the difference. Furthermore, Federation replicators could be programmed to produce foodstuffs of acceptable "nutritional value" despite resembling more indulgent items. ( TNG: " The Price", " Sins of The Father", " The Wounded", " Relics"; DS9: " In the Pale Moonlight", " You Are Cordially Invited") Some people didn't learn to cook without a replicator. ( TNG: " Family", " In Theory", " The Wounded"; VOY: " Human Error") Some smaller ships didn't bother to carry food or water, preferring to rely on their replicators to synthsize what they needed, which saved on space but caused problems if the replicator was damaged. ( TNG: " Final Mission") Rep. Seth Moulton, D-Mass., said that comparing Replicator to what Ukraine has done should be a metric for how successful the initiative is. A variation of self replication is of practical relevance in compiler construction, where a similar bootstrapping problem occurs as in natural self replication. A compiler ( phenotype) can be applied on the compiler's own source code ( genotype) producing the compiler itself. During compiler development, a modified ( mutated) source is used to create the next generation of the compiler. This process differs from natural self-replication in that the process is directed by an engineer, not by the subject itself.

(phase II report) According to an academic thesis: "The so-called 'replicators' can reconstitute matter and produce everything that is needed out of pure energy, no matter whether food, medicaments, or spare parts are required." [3] A replicator can create any inanimate matter, as long as the desired molecular structure is on file, but it cannot create antimatter, dilithium, latinum, and (in the case of at least federation replicators) living things of any kind; for the last case, non-canon works such as the Star Trek: the Next Generation Technical Manual state that, though the replicators share the same technology with transporters, the resolution used is too low to create living tissue. However, other replicators, such as the ones used by the aliens in the TNG episode "Allegiance," could create living things, including the brain's many trillions of dendritic connections where memory is stored.

Foreword by Ralph Flanders. Captain Janeway feared that if this technology were acquired by a civilization before they were ready, disastrous consequences could ensue. For this reason, and because of the Prime Directive, Janeway refused to give away the technology at any price. Replicating large numbers of items could require significant amounts of power to be diverted from the warp core. ( TNG: " The Child") Complex elements such as anicium and yurium also required large amounts of energy to replicate. ( TNG: " Night Terrors") During emergency situations, the use the replicators might be restricted to save power for vital systems or because they were unreliable; requiring rations to be replicated instead of more elaborate food ( TNG: " Yesterday's Enterprise"; VOY: " Year of Hell", " The Killing Game", " Demon"; DS9: " The Siege"), rationing of replicator usage ( VOY: " The Cloud", " Real Life", " The Void"), or the use of traditionally-prepared food. ( DS9: " Covenant"; VOY: " The Cloud") It was sometimes necessary to take the replicators completely offline to conserve power.
