Abstract
Communication system designers minimize noise with self-correcting codes that add redundant information to the signal, increasing the probability of error detection, and recovery of the uncorrupted data. Evolutionary biologists claim that knowledge transmitted between generations of biological organisms have mechanisms that create probability traps for errors. Designers of online systems are starting to mimic these systems.
