Principle of Methodological Engineering

According to the principle of methodological engineering, biological systems are to be understood as engineering systems. In consequence, their origin, construction, operation, break down, wearing out, repair, and above all history of modifications (both designed and accidental) are all to be understood in engineering terms.

The principle of methodological engineering is a regulative principle that grounds biology in the science of engineering.
