Robert
Oates received his Masters degree in Applied Computer Science and Cybernetics
from the Cybernetics Department
of the University of Reading
After
graduating he worked for Siemens Automation and Drives as part of
the standard
drives software team, developing PC interface tools and maintaining
control software for low-voltage converters.
He
completed his PhD in Artificial Immune Systems and Robotics at the University of Nottingham.

The
Documentation for my C++ Neural Network Library can be found Here.
My
informal guide on how to use ARIA to control a Pioneer robot can be found here.
The
Dendritic Cell Algorithm Library:
- Help file for V1.2: here.
- The source code for V1.2 is
here.
V1.2 is
the implementation of the ORIGINAL DCA, not my optimised version. That is currently at version 2.2, if
you want that version, please contact me directly.
