Abstract EN
Epidemic dynamics of computer viruses is an emerging discipline aiming to understand the way that computer viruses spread on networks.
This paper is intended to establish a series of rational epidemic models of computer viruses.
First, a close inspection of some common characteristics shared by all typical computer viruses clearly reveals the flaws of previous models.
Then, a generic epidemic model of viruses, which is named as the SLBS model, is proposed.
Finally, diverse generalizations of the SLBS model are suggested.
We believe this work opens a door to the full understanding of how computer viruses prevail on the Internet.
