Abstract excerpt
The aim of this study was to develop a computational model of HIV infection able to simulate the natural history of the disease and to test predictive parameters of disease progression. We describe the results of a numerical simulation of the cellular and humoral immune response to HIV-1 infection as an adaptive pathway in a "bit-string" space. A total of 650 simulations of the HIV-1 dynamics were performed with...
