Virus! A project for 427
Virus! simulates the spread of a virus across a plane of red blood cells, with a mix of some white blood cells to combat the infection.
Project Outline
My Design Study is to implement a simple virus simulator and to improve the design of the application through Design Patterns and OOD principles. Virus! 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.
Virus! Cells
Red Blood Cell
Virus Cell
Dendrite Cell
Lymphocyte Cell
Eosinophil Cell
Cell Rules
- 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.
- Dendrites can spawn Lymphocytes or Eosinophil (50/50 chance) cells into neighboring Red Blood Cells.
- Lymphocytes can kill neighboring viruses (and restore Red Blood Cells).
- Eosinophil cannot be infected. But does nothing more.
