Therefore, we vary the initial concentration of HIV infected cells, P M-DC , and the severity of HIV infected cells, P I-T4 , of a stochastic cellular automaton for HIV infection which describes the dynamics of HIV infected cells spreading over a patch of lymphoid tissues. Our results reveal that the variations of P M-DC and P I-T4 do not change the feature of the dynamics of the model. They affect the dynamics of the model in the following ways: the greater the magnitude of P M-DC and P I-T4 , the faster the dynamics during the primary phase, and the severity parameter has greater effect on the model than does the HIV's initial concentration. © 2012 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.Mahidol UniversityComputer ScienceMathematicsConference PaperSCOPUS10.1007/978-3-642-33350-7-47
