What is it about?
This paper discusses the shift from traditional or conventional engineering to complex engineering systems. The aim consists in understanding engineering within the scope of complexity science.

Why is it important?
Traditionally, engineers are trained in designing, parametrizing, building. Complex systems, alas, demand and entail a quite different approach. A wide framework is provided that allows to grasp the relationship between engineering and science.
Perspectives
This paper belongs to a wide research line focused on biological hyper computation. hence, a quite distinct take on computation is necessary. This paper opens up, so to speak, the door to understanding computation and engineering in a brand new way.
