Time and Information, The Origins of 'Time' from Information Flow In Causal Networks and Complex Systems

The 'problem of time' can be 'solved' in principle by taking the viewpoint that information created by quantum systems or Feynman Clocks (FCs) is transferred by signals to detectors as quantum 'infostates' and then used to construct 'time' with a T-computer. This constructed quantum 'time' results from the quantum computational process of coupling observed signals to standard clock signals into time labeled infostates in an observers' T-computer. The T-computer model is used to define standard 'time coordinates' for 'events' in space-time maps. The 'direction' and 'dimension' of 'arrows of time' follow from the ordering and properties of the numbers used to label event 'times'.
