....disease causing agents: a macroparasite species that spread via direct contact, and a vector borne microparasite (patbogen) species. The user can selectively remove some of the species to perform controlled experiments for specific species interactions like we have done it with the TEMPEST model [11, 12, 13]. The model described here assumes haploid species. We introduce genetic data to answer two biological questions. First, we want to find out what is the probability that a host will be infected. Second, we want to measure what impact does an infection have on the host s fecundity and mortality. ....

....model can describe a cell s state transitions as functions of the states of cells within its stencil. The size of the stencil and the location of the affected cell within it are based on the characteristics of the species and the habitat. The implemented model allows di verse analyses [11, 31, 32]. We can examine both direct transmission and the ecologically significant vector borne disease. The software is parameterized by the modeled species properties for ease of experimentation. The model presented has been used to investigate the relatively unexplored issue of how systematically ....
....array, so both ai and perimeter i can be computed by a segmented scan operator using O(x ) messages. The fractal dimension is obtained using reduction operators with a complexity of O(x ) in number of operations and messages which is also the overall complexity of the entire computation (see [31] for more details) Implementation on a coarse grained MIMD architecture is nontrivial. We are adopting Bader and JJ s image component labeling algorithm [2] and are extending it to compute the area and perimeter of each image component. 3.3.

In [Maniatty et al. 1993] the algorithms used in the implementation are discussed in more detail. Thirty six executions of the model were timed using 32 bit integer and 64 bit floating point arithmetic on the MasPar MP 1 (with 2048 PEs, each with a 1:56 MIPS and 0:0336 MFLOPS rating) and the DECstation 5000=240HX (42:9 ....

The future generation of TEMPEST might use a more efficient visualization package than that provided by Maple. 5 BIOLOGICAL RESULTS AND INTERPRETATIONS So far, TEMPEST has been used to simulate: ffl the spread of epidemics [Maniatty et al. 1993], ffl population dynamics of single species systems, ffl populations dynamics of two competing species. In this section, we discuss simulation results for singlespecies and two species systems. The purpose of simulations was to investigate extinction trends, rates of population spread and the ....
