On Modelling an Immune System
نویسندگان
چکیده
Immune systems of live forms have been an abundant source of inspiration to contemporary computer scientists. Problem solving strategies, stemming from known immune system phenomena, have been successfully applied to challenging problems of modern computing. However, research in artificial immune systems has overlooked establishing a coherent model of known immune system behaviour. This paper aims reports on an preliminary computer model of an immune system, where each immune system component is specified in terms of its observable behaviour using a suitable process algebra. Our model is not only suitable to simulation but also and more importantly to formal analyzes of immune system behaviour.

A Review on the Effect of Arginine on Growth Performance, Meat Quality, Intestine Morphology, and Immune System of Broiler Chickens
For chickens, arginine considered an essential amino acid due to the lack of urea cycle in birds. Arginine deficiency causes growth retardation, higher prevalence of disease due to the malfunction of immune system, and lower gastrointestinal capacity. However, higher levels of arginine in the diet improved growth performance, muscle hypertrophy, and meat quality. Arginine reduces carcass fat ac...
متن کاملThe role of medicinal plants on the immune system of fishes
In recent years, the use of medicinal plants to prevent disease has become a common alternative to antibiotics in aquaculture. Herbal products have attracted more attention due to their special properties, such as less damage to the environment, availability and cheapness, as well as the possibility of large-scale cultivation. Increasing bacterial resistance to commercial antibiotics has increa...
متن کاملThe Bernoulli Ritz-collocation method to the solution of modelling the pollution of a system of lakes
Pollution has become a very serious threat to our environment. Monitoring pollution is the rst step toward planning to save the environment. The use of dierential equations, monitoring pollution has become possible. In this paper, a Ritz-collocation method is introduced to solve non-linear oscillatory systems such as modelling the pollution of a system of lakes. The method is based upon Bernoul...
متن کاملP 60: The Effect of Melatonin as a Therapeutic Goal on Multiple Sclerosis Through Immune Processes
Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system which is accompanied by demyelinating the neurons. The imbalance between the T cell effectors and T cell regulators is thought to have a role in the pathogenesis of the disease. Melatonin is a hormone that is secreted by pineal gland which has an important role in circadian rhythm and immune-modulatory effects. Melatonin ...
متن کاملModelling and Simulation of Low-Head Hydro Turbine for Small Signal Stability Analysis in Power System
The hydro turbine dynamics have a considerable influence on the dynamic stability of power system. In the study of dynamic stability, the system is modeled by the linear differential equations (small signal analysis). Small signal stability of power systems is needed in all conditions and only is dependent on the conditions of power system performance before commotion occurrence. This paper pr...
