Abstract

Artificial immune systems (AISs) have been proposed as a new computing paradigm. This paper reviews design principles of adaptive cellular immunity, based on the immunological literature rather than the simplified mathematical models which have thus far dominated the development of framework for design, interpretation, and application of AISs.
