Abstract/Description
In this position paper, we outline a vision for a new type of engineering:
immuno-engineering, that can be used for the development of biologically grounded
and theoretically understood Artificial Immune Systems (AIS). We argue that, like
many bio-inspired paradigms, AIS have drifted somewhat away from the source of
inspiration. We also argue that through an interdisciplinary approach, it is possible
to exploit the underlying biology for computation in a way that, as yet, has not been
achieved. Immuno-engineering will not only allow for the potential development of
more powerful AIS, but allow for feed back to biology from computation
