Immunity-Based Systems: A Design Perspective (Softcover Reprint of the Original 1st 2004)Paperback - Softcover Reprint of the Original 1st 2004, 7 December 2010

A framework for communication intensive autonomous agents inspired from the immune system is presented in this text. With the rapid increase of computational power and networking technology similarity between computer and biological systems may now practically work. The framework presented fills the need to guide the implementation of such a "biological" system. The focus is on the field of diagnosis and control. Several sample applications and simulations are presented.
