Abstract EN
We explore with the use of multicore processing technologies for conducting simulations on population replacement of disease vectors.
In our model, a native population of simulated vectors is inoculated with a small exogenous population of vectors that have been infected with the Wolbachia bacteria, which confers immunity to the disease.
We conducted a series of computational simulations to study the conditions required by the invading population to take over the native population.
Given the computational burden of this study, we decided to take advantage of modern multicore processor technologies for reducing the time required for the simulations.
Overall, the results seem promising both in terms of the application and the use of multicore technologies.
