The basic idea of lifelike computing systems is the transfer of concepts in living systems to technical use that goes even beyond existing concepts of self-adaptation and self-organisation (SASO). As a result, these systems become even more autonomous and changeable - up to a runtime transfer of the actual target function. Maintaining controllability requires a complete and dynamic (self-)quantification of the system behaviour with regard to aspects of SASO but also, in particular, lifelike properties. In this article, we discuss possible approaches for such metrics and establish a first metric for transferability. We analyse the behaviour of the metric using example applications and show that it is suitable for describing the system's behaviour at runtime.
