Challenge Team Abstract

Team Number: 077 School Name: Sante Fe Prepratory Area of Science: Epidimiology Project Title: A Starlogo Epidemic

We would like to simulate an epidemic in a third world country, in order to address the problem lack of sufficent medical supplies. We would be looking for the smallest amount of medical supplies that could successfully stop an epidemic. We plan to simulate the epidemic and medical resources in the starlogo program. Later, if needed, we might add other factors to make our simulation more realistic and perhaps even scale it up to a super computer.
