Exploiting Collaborations in the Immune System: The Future of Artificial Immune Systems (2009)
Book Chapter
Hart, E., McEwan, C., & Davoudani, D. (2009). Exploiting Collaborations in the Immune System: The Future of Artificial Immune Systems. In C. Mumford, & L. Jain (Eds.), Intelligent Systems Reference Library; Computational Intelligence (527-558). Springer-Verlag. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-01799-5_16

Despite a steady increase in the application of algorithms inspired by the natural immune system to a variety of domains over the previous decade, we argue that the field of Artificial Immune Systems has yet to achieve its full potential. We suggest... Read More about Exploiting Collaborations in the Immune System: The Future of Artificial Immune Systems.

Computing the State of Specknets: an immune-inspired approach. (2009)
Conference Proceeding
Davoudani, D., Hart, E., & Paechter, B. (2009). Computing the State of Specknets: an immune-inspired approach. In Performance Evaluation of Computer and Telecommunication Systems, 2008. SPECTS 2008. International Symposium on (52-59)

Speckled Computing is an emerging technology based on the deployment of thousands of minute semiconductor grains in dense, wireless networks known as Specknets. Specknets collect and process data to achieve some application dependent functionalit... Read More about Computing the State of Specknets: an immune-inspired approach..

Immunological inspiration for building a new generation of autonomic systems. (2007)
Conference Proceeding
Hart, E., Davoudani, D., & McEwan, C. (2007). Immunological inspiration for building a new generation of autonomic systems. In Autonomics '07 Proceedings of the 1st international conference on Autonomic computing and communication systems

Autonomic computing systems of the future will be required to exhibit a number of properties which cannot be engineered using current technologies and algorithms. The most direct inspiration for building such systems is nature, where for example the... Read More about Immunological inspiration for building a new generation of autonomic systems..
