Exploiting the analogy between the immune system and sparse distributed memory. Genetic Programming and Evolvable Machines, 4(4), 333-358. doi:10.1023/a:1026191011609
The relationship between immunological memory and a class of associative memories known as sparse distributed memories (SDM) is well known. This paper proposes a new model for...

Learning a procedure that can solve hard bin-packing problems: a new GA-based approach to hyperheuristics.
Conference Proceeding
Ross, P., Marin-Blazquez, J. G., Schulenburg, S. & Hart, E. (2003)
Learning a procedure that can solve hard bin-packing problems: a new GA-based approach to hyperheuristics
The idea underlying hyper-heuristics is to discover some
combination of familiar, straightforward heuristics that performs very well across a whole range of problems. To be wo...
Evaluating soundscapes as a means of creating a sense of place
Conference Proceeding
Turner, P., McGregor, I., Turner, S., & Carroll, F. (2003)
Evaluating soundscapes as a means of creating a sense of place
We report an empirical study into the creation of, and
response to, a soundscape of a computer centre. We contrast
the use of presence questionnaires, as means of assessing th...
