MATHEMATICAL METHODS AND APPLIED COMPUTINGPlenary Lecture 2Immune Network <strong>and</strong> Adaptive ControlProfessor Mari<strong>us</strong>-Constantin PopescuElectromechanical DepartmentFaculty of Electromechanical <strong>and</strong> Environmental EngineeringUniversity of CraiovaROMANIAEmail: popescu_ctin2006@yahoo.comAbstract: This paper describes an attempt to spread further the inspiration gained from the knowledge of biologicalsystems for engineering applications. New lessons addressed to the control of complex processes might derive fromelements of the immune system comprehension. Important points inherent to the immune functions are transposed,re-interpreted <strong>and</strong> analysed in an adaptive control perspective. They are: viability, distribution, reinforcement learning,optimization, adaptability <strong>and</strong> memory. Several resemblances will be pointed out with the Q_learning method as wellas with classifiers system principles.Brief Biography of the Speaker:Mari<strong>us</strong>-Constantin Popescu is currently an Associate Professor in Automatics <strong>and</strong> Computers, in the Faculty ofElectromechanical, Environmental Engineering <strong>and</strong> Ind<strong>us</strong>trial Informatics, University of Craiova, Romania.
