Simple algorithms for the representation of deterministic and stochastic versions of the Reed-Frost epidemic model using a programmable calculator...(1986-05-05) Franco, E L; Simons, A RTwo programs are described for the emulation of the dynamics of Reed Frost progressive epidemics in a handheld programmable calculator HP 41C series The programs provide a complete record of cases susceptibles and immunes at each epidemic period using either the deterministic formulation or the trough analogue of the mechanical model for the stochastic version Both programs can compute epidemics that include a constant rate of influx or outflux of susceptibles and single or double infectivity time periods
