While physical systems are signified by status, life systems are evidenced by function and organ. As anticipatory systems their behaviour relies on embodied memories of their past and probable future. Complexity and semiosis act as drivers of evolution; anticipation as constituting principle of life systems. Complexity implies unfolding and re-enfolding guiding differentiation and growth. Semiosis generates intent and meaning ensuring viable simplicity. Interacting, they open potentiality and fields of probability for development. The dynamic entailment of complexity and meaning structures all life systems up to mental constructs. - An overarching concept embraces the pattems of life. It sheds light on the fundamental changes concerning life conditions in society and ecology.

How will future development turn out? In pursue of well founded rational answers by anticipating, science explores the behavior and emergence of complex systems. To understand them pragmatically, object- and issue related, transdisciplinary co-operation is challenged. To this end recently the need for transdisciplinary models and semantics is stressed. Transdisciplinarity inquires into the shared base of disciplines. Systemics and Evolution approach in particular qualify as (also ontological) bases.

Persistently she insists on strict rules when a paper is to be written. Rarely she permits looser regulatives, seldom admits but lightly shirted pensive musings. However, the notions following describe the scientific landscape nano-sciences arise from and are born into in a leisured fashion. Nano-sciences are treated as paradigmatic phenomenon within rapidly changing scientific paradigms, the 'turn' to nano representing a typical example. The name indicates mathematical/ physical origin: a measure used in technology. Scientific base as well as technology application connect 'nano' not only to physical, but also to life systems and life sciences. Nano-sciences mean transdisciplinarity. Scientific investigation faces a borderline attempt. The implications are depicted in their essential qualities.
