Abstract

In this position paper, we argue that the field of Artificial Immune Systems (AIS) has reached an impass. For many years, immune inspired algorithms, whilst having some degree of success, have been limited by the lack of theorectical advances, the adoption of a limited immune inspired approach and the limited application of AIS to hard problems.
