✦ Synopsis

123-134, we introduced automated self-assembly programming paradigm (ASAP 2 ) using unguided selfassembly and swarm-inspired methodologies. We investigated how external environment settings affect software self-assembly speed and diversity of the generated programs. In this paper, we extend our previous work with a diversified compartments approach based on general graphs. This diversified compartments approach is integrated into a network structure such that each compartment can be seen as a node in the network. We investigate how structures of the network impacts on software self-assembly speed, complexity, and diversity of generated programs. Results indicate that network structure can substantially affect the dynamics, diversity, and complexity of generated programs.
