Abstract :
This paper makes a study of survivability of network based on biological immune principles. The definition of survivability of network is discussed and a new definition on the premise of staying alive is made. The inspiration of biological immune system to the network survivability is analyzed, and at this basis, a method for the second development of survivable network system is presented. The survivability of system is controlled by many immune unites which are autonomous and distributed. The logical model, classification and implementation of the immune unites are given. The design helps the system keep survivable by adaptation.
