Abstract

In this paper we derive a successive method of solution to a general class of models pertaining to the investigation of the migration process. A specific application of the results to a problem arising in a study of the epidemiology of leprosy has been considered. The application to explorative studies in biological modelling using an interactive computing mode has been discussed.
