| Aim: The objective of this course is to introduce the general theory of modeling and simulation of a variety of systems: physical processes, computer systems, biological systems and natural processes. After passing the course the student should be able to:
|
|||
| Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered) Anatomy and physiology. Medical imaging. Prior object-orientation modeling experience is helpful, although not assumed. Programming maturity is assumed. Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding. |
|||
| Organisation: The course has a student-centered focus with tutorial sessions, seminars, lectures, workshops and laboratory work as keystones. |
|||
| Course contents: Introduction to systems modeling concepts, modeling formalisms and their simulators, discrete and continuous event systems modeling, Hybrid systems and Stochastic systems. The use of diagnostic images to develop computer models and simulations that exhibit physical and physiological realism. Multi-level visualization and multi-scale modeling to connect the simulations and visualization of multiple levels of cells, tissues, and organs. Computational models of physiology embedded within computer graphics models and diagnostic image-based models of anatomy, to enable more realistic and accurate simulations. Models of cells and subcellular systems and cellular processes and the creation of a framework for post-genomic analysis. Study and derive end-user applications, with an emphasis on training medical personnel and the use of distributed visualization and simulation in medical education. |
