    Abstract

    This paper addresses the problem of division of labour as an evolutionary process in which co-ordinated agents attempt problem-solving as a search in problem space. Co-ordination stress and learning trigger adaptation but as complexity rises radical solutions are sought prompting radical organisational as well as technological change. The analytical issues involved are further explored by resorting to the so-called NKC model of evolution and co-evolution.
