Memetic-Computing
Memetic Computing is a novel computational paradigm that incorporates the notion of meme(s)[1] as basic units of transferable information encoded in computational representations for boosting the performance of artificial evolutionary systems in the domain of search and optimization[2].
The term memetic computing is often unassumingly misinterpreted to mean the same thing as memetic algorithms that typically hybridize population-based global search algorithms with one or more local search schemes. Notably, memetic computing offers a much more broader scope, perpetuating the idea of memes into concepts that pave way towards simultaneous problem learning and optimization approach.

Handcrafted memes
machine crafted memes
Applications
Recent research works have shown various success that the concept of "meme" dispersal and selection can be exploited in, for example, robotics engineering, multi-agent systems, robotics, optimization, software engineering, and the social sciences etc.
