ABSTRACT
Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) has been one of the main public heath problems that the Chinese public is facing. In order to estimate and predict the development of the epidemic situation, we studied on cellular automaton with the mechanism and characteristics of AIDS, and sets up an AIDS model on the base of the principle of cellular automaton. By studying the model, we analyzed the segregation power and AIDS-immune persons' influence on the transmission of the diseases. Some estimations and predictions can be drawn by studying model parameters. The structure of the model is flexible, and so it can change control tactics during evolution. Traditional differential equation cannot come up to it under the circumstances. It serves as tool with a great significance to the control as well as the prevention of AIDS.
