Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEpidemiological Models Applied to Viruses in Computer NetworksJos R.S. Piqueira, Betyna F. Navarro, Luiz H.A. MonteiroTo investigate the use of classical epidemiological models for studying computer virus propagation we described analogies between computer and population disease propagation using SIR (Susceptible-Infected-Removed) epidemiological models. By modifying these models with the introduction of anti-viral individuals we analyzed the stability of the disease free equilibrium points. Consequently, the basal virus reproduction rate gives some theoretical hints about how to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,574 accessesView PDFCite
