Additional information
<10> This paper explores the novel use of process algebra for population dynamics. The work arose from an EPSRC project entitled, “System Dynamics from Individual Interactions: A process algebra approach to epidemiology” (£343K, EP/E006280/1, Principal Investigator Shankland). It introduces a fluid flow technique for a probabilistic process algebra, providing a rigorous derivation of Ordinary Differential Equation models of populations based on explicit assumptions (as opposed to traditional Ordinary Differential Equation models which are based on implicit assumptions of the experienced mathematician).
