The coding (programming) consists of a series of routines in R, a quality, open-source scientific computing system that is readily available from the internet. The routines are based on the method of lines (MOL), a general PDE algorithm that can be executed on modest computers within the basic R system. The reader can download and use the routines to confirm the model solutions reported in the book, then experiment with the model by varying the parameters and modifying\/extending the equations, and even studying alternative models with the PDE methodology demonstrated by the CV-ICI model.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eSpatiotemporal Modeling of Cancer Immunotherapy: Partial Differential Equation Analysis in R\u003c\/i\u003e facilitates the use of the model, and more generally, computer- based analysis of cancer immunotherapy mathematical models, as a step toward the development and quantitative evaluation of the immunotherapy approach to the treatment of cancer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45275170013335,"sku":"9783030176358","price":7345.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783030176358.webp?v=1769282101","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/spatiotemporal-modeling-of-cancer-immunotherapy-partial-differential-equation-analysis-in-r-9783030176358","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
