A simple model for a smoothly expanding universe is based on the idea of a linear incremental increase of length and total energy in time. This linear development is regarded as a continuation of the first singular step in the formation of the universe. The energy increase can be understood as a compensation of forming space by internal condensation of energy. The assumptions matches to the idea of a digital world, in which not only masses and charges are represented by countable elementary particles, but time and space are composed by countable units, too. The physical constants and their units can be derived from a very small set of fundamental units which have been defined by the initial phase of cosmic evolution. The only exception is Sommerfelds constant (FSK). It is proposed to regard this constant as a time-dependent parameter describing the aging of universe, in general.
