The concept of multiple discovery (also known as simultaneous invention)[1][self-published source] is the hypothesis that most scientific discoveries and inventions are made independently and more or less simultaneously by multiple scientists and inventors.[2][page needed] The concept of multiple discovery opposes a traditional view—the "heroic theory" of invention and discovery.[not verified in body] Multiple discovery is analogous to convergent evolution in biological evolution.[according to whom?][dubious – discuss][clarification needed]
