Simulation of models of enteric virus epidemics
International Journal of Bio-Medical Computing, 1971Abstract Various extensions of a stochastic model illustrating the spread of virus epidemics have been simulated. As assumptions and hypotheses concerning the basic model have been added and tested, the computer programs designed to run the simulation have increased in complexity.

Proceedings of the 6th conference on Winter simulation, 1973
Schistosomiasis is a vector-borne parasitic epidemic currently affecting about 250 million people and constitutes a serious public health problem in many countries. In Egypt alone, the estimated annual loss due to this disease is about d560 million dollars.The life-cycle of schistosomes involves two incubation periods, one in human beings, another in ...

Canines Rabies Epidemic and Control Simulator
2020 - 5th International Conference on Information Technology (InCIT), 2020Rabies, a fatal and infectious disease, is still endemic in all regions of Thailand. Domestic dogs are the most common reservoir of the virus. In a practical routine, it has a measure to control a disease with a mass vaccination, but operation is not effective due to the large area of operation protocol and difficulty in tracking an infected dog.

A Random Walk Epidemic Simulation
Journal of the American Statistical Association, 1973Abstract An epidemic simulation is presented in which the population occupies a rectangular grid and individuals or germs move about the grid using a two-dimensional random walk. It is shown that the model can simulate the Providence measles data and also a distemper epidemic in ferrets.

Human mobility based individual-level epidemic simulation platform
SIGSPATIAL Special, 2020Coronavirus has spread worldwide and about 3.5 million people have been confirmed infected and over 300 thousands people died. Scientists have reached the consensus that human mobility is the principal factor in spreading the virus and mobility should be restricted to control the epidemic.

Scientists can be distinguished from others who try to improve the human condition by their striving to understand thoroughly how something works. People in many pursuits work to control outcomes, while the scientist works to understand, often reducing a phenomenon to its parts, experimenting with the parts until they are understood, and then ...

TUBERCULOUS MENINGITIS SIMULATING EPIDEMIC ENCEPHALITIS
Journal of the American Medical Association, 1924Notwithstanding the fact that the differential diagnosis between tuberculous meningitis and epidemic (lethargic) encephalitis, as given in most textbooks, appears to give little difficulty, in actual practice a correct diagnosis is frequently impossible.

A computer simulation model of a rubella epidemic
Computers in Biology and Medicine, 1974Abstract This paper presents a deterministic computer simulation model of the rubella epidemic process. The model consists of four difference equations which relate the number of infectant individuals in a closed population to the number of susceptible individuals, the number of immune individuals, the contact rate, the birth and death rates, and the

Epidemic Simulation for Training in Public Health Management
IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 1972Epidemiological simulation models to be used primarily to augment the teaching of epidemiology to medical students and other individuals concerned with public health and control of epidemics are presented. Interactive simulations are used to expose students to ``realistic'' epidemic situations and permit them to experiment with various control ...

Modeling and simulation of local epidemics
Proceedings of the 2007 international conference on Computer systems and technologies - CompSysTech '07, 2007A branching process model of a local epidemic is briefly discussed and some useful expressions are given for the fundamental characteristics of the epidemic outbreaks. Starting from the model, a program tool (written in SIMULA) is described for simulating small outbreaks of a contagious disease in a large susceptible population.
