The Asa H value hierarchy

The values assigned to Asa H cases may vary from one level in the hierarchy to another. At the lowest level(s) case length and how often the case is seen to recur is valued. (see, for instance, Asa H 2.0 light in my blog of 10 Feb 2011).  At the highest level in the hierarchy agent lifespan and number of offspring (diskcopies)  may be whats most highly valued (see, for instance, my paper, Trans. Kan. Acad. Sci., vol. 109, No. 3/4, 2006 )
