Abstract
Computer models for analysis of fishery systems may involve complex applications of mathematics and computer science. While the mathematical aspects of these models have been thoroughly studied, less attention has been paid to methodologies for their computer implementation. As a result, some models excessively simplify fishery systems to avoid difficulties in implementation. This study presents an advanced computer technique (linked lists) which permits the inclusion of complex time simulations and data structures in fishery models with little additional effort. Examples of application to complex information arrays and an age-structured population model are included. Key words: computer, simulation, model, fishery.
