Virus! A project for 427
Project Outline
My Project is a very simple animated simulator of a Virus Cell infecting a host through the red blood cells. This simulator is loosely based on real world biology but is grossly simplified for purposes of the study. This is a project for COSC427 and does not work alongside any other course, unfortunately.
There are some basic rules that apply to this mini sim-world.
- Red Blood cells can be Infected
- Virus' can only infect neighboring red cells
- Virus' cannot infect White blood cells
In terms of a simple immune system three types of white blood cells exist; Dendrite Cell, Lymphocytes and Eosinophil.
- Dendritic Cells can spawn other cells.
- Lymphocytes can kill viruses (and restore Red Blood Cells).
- Eosinophil cannot be infected. But does nothing more.
For some basic references see White Blood Cell
Initial Design
This is a basic overview of the simulator. It shows a basic spread of red blood cells and a variety of white blood cells.
Soon diagram will live here, yes.
