Book Chapter
Timmis, J., Knight, T., de Castro, L., & Hart, E. (2005). An overview of artificial immune systems. In R. Paton, H. Bolouri, W. M. L. Holcombe, J. H. Parish, & R. Tateson (Eds.), Computation in Cells and Tissues: Perspectives and Tools of Thought (51-86).

The immune system is highly distributed, highly adaptive, self-organising in nature, maintains a memory of past encounters and has the ability to continually learn about new encounters. From a computational point of view, the immune system has much t... Read More about An overview of artificial immune systems..

Evolutionary scheduling: a review. (2005)
Journal Article
Hart, E., Ross, P., & Corne, D. (2005). Evolutionary scheduling: a review. Genetic Programming and Evolvable Machines, 6, 191-220. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10710-005-7580-7

Early and seminal work which applied evolutionary computing methods to scheduling problems from 1985 onwards laid a strong and exciting foundation for the work which has been reported over the past decade or so. A survey of the current state-of-the-a... Read More about Evolutionary scheduling: a review..

The impact of the shape of antibody recognition regions on the emergence of idiotypic networks. (2005)
Journal Article
Hart, E., & Ross, P. (2005). The impact of the shape of antibody recognition regions on the emergence of idiotypic networks. International Journal of Unconventional Computing, 1, 281-313

One of the components of an AIS algorithm that most distinguishes it from other paradigms is the use of an affinity funciton. However, for the most part, the implications of choosing a suitable matching rule and the likely effects on the algorithm fr...
