Abstract :
The paper proposes an architecture for building immunochips and provides a mathematical framework in describing some of its operations using the concepts of proteins and immune networks. This approach is considered as the computational basis of an "immunochip", and this paper describes its implementation procedure. The proposed immunochip is emulated in software and evaluated with the problem of detecting of dangerous ballistic situations in near-Earth space.
