This talk falls into two parts. The first part is primarily focused on the history of artificial chemistry (AChem). After prerequisite conditions for the AChem design are presented, advantages and disadvantages of some previous models are discussed in the light of the conditions and the chemical reaction velocity theory. The second part is dedicated to possible application of the AChem to some engineering purposes. Specifically, we take NAC (Network-based Artificial Chemistry) as an example, and talk about how the bio-molecular system can be emulated in a mathematical medium, network. A novel computational and learning system named "Algorithmically Transitive Network" is presented.
