Abstract

Stauffer7has replaced the window automata rules — applied by de Boer, Segel and Perelson2for simulating the immunological shape space — by probabilistic rules, very similar to the ones of the ferromagnetic Ising Model. Based on this model, we extend the interaction range to more than nearest neighbors and find phase transitions not only in higher dimensions, but also in two dimensions, Biologically these phase transitions correspond to a transition from a reasonable to a non-reasonable behavior of the whole immune network.
