Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arti?cial Immune Systems have come of age. They are no longer an obscure computersciencetechnique,workedonbyacoupleoffarsightedresearchgroups. Today, researchers across the globe are working on new computer algorithms inspired by the workings of the immune system. This vigorous ?eld of research investigates how immunobiology can assist our technology, and along the way is beginning to help biologists understand their unique problems. AIS is now old enough to understand its roots, its context in the research community, and its exciting future. It has grown too big to be con?ned to s- cial sessions in evolutionary computation conferences. AIS researchers are now forming their own community and identity. The International Conference on Arti?cial Immune Systems is proud to be the premiere conference in the area. As its organizers, we were honored to have such a variety of innovative and original scienti?c papers presented this year. ICARIS 2004 was the third international conference dedicated entirely to the ?eld of Arti?cial Immune Systems (AIS). It was held in Catania, on the beautiful island of Sicily, Italy, during September 13–16, 2004. While hosting the conference, the city of Catania gave the participants the opportunity to enjoy the richness of its historical and cultural atmosphere and the beauty of its natural resources, the sea, and the Etna volcano.

Download or read book Information Processing and Biological Systems written by Samuli Niiranen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-03-10 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Living beings require constant information processing for survival. In cells, information is being processed and propagated at various levels, from the gene regulatory network to chemical pathways, to the interaction with the environment. How this is achieved and how information is coded is still poorly understood. For example, what a cell interprets as information in the temporal level of an mRNA and what is interpreted as noise remains an open question. Recently, information theoretical methods and other tools, developed in the context of engineering and natural sciences, have been applied to study diverse biological processes. This book covers the latest findings on how information is processed in various biological processes, ranging from information processing and propagation in gene regulatory networks to information processing in natural language. An overview is presented of the state-of-the-art in information processing in biological systems and the opinion of current leaders in this research field on future research directions.

Download or read book Immunology and Medical Zoology written by Lucca Crosby & Andrew Elliott and published by Scientific e-Resources. This book was released on 2019-04-16 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Immunology and medical zoology presents current advancements and also thorough surveys in immunology. Articles address the extensive variety of points that contain immunology, including atomic and cell enactment components, phylogeny and sub-atomic development, and clinical modalities. Immunology is the investigation of the body's security from outside macromolecules or attacking life forms and the reactions to them. These trespassers incorporate infections, microorganisms, protozoa or significantly bigger parasites. What's more, immune reactions are produced against our own proteins (and different atoms) in autoimmunity and against our own particular distorted cells in tumor insusceptibility. The principal line of protection against outside creatures are hindrance tissues, for example, the skin that stop the passage of living being into our bodies. A moment line of resistance is the particular or versatile immune framework which may take days to react to an essential attack (that is contamination by a life form that has not up to this point been seen). This new book unites new research from around the world managing this critical subject. Immunology, with its premise in microbiology, is a critical segment of the essential sciences educational modules and has solid relationship with fields, for example, sensitivity, immunochemistry, immunopharmacology and transplantation.
