    The authors describe how macroscopic spacetime is supposed to emerge as a superstructure of a web of lumps in a fluctuating dynamical cellular network. The lumps are considered as specific entangled subgraphs in a dynamically evolving network which, in certain approximation, can be visualized as a time-dependent random graph. The authors try to find better adapted geometric environments for the description of microphysics than the one developed by Menger et al. some time ago.
