Hi Alan, Brian and others,

thank you very much for discussion and hints for sources to go further.

I'll read what you suggested, and I also go on thinking about "process" 
"objects", which hopefully and at least will result in the ability to 
express better my problems or questions. For me it is definitivley not 
at the end :-) There are other interesting words in this context like 
chaos theory and cellular automata.....

Thank you.

Greetings

Hans
