Self awareness
Self awareness comes from self reflection, and it leads to consciousness. The paper on Stepping Beyond the Newtonian Paradigm in Biology[1], provides some modeling techniques to encode this kind of phenomenon. The reverse argument of how self-awareness is just not existent, but an artifact of time/entropy pool, can be found in the title of the famous book by Richard Dawkins:The Blind Watchmaker[2].
