Abstract
To arrive at a workable mode lling methodology the theoretical approaches have 10 be complemented by efficient numerical lechniques for exploring the models so conceived. Tbus far the problem of numerically calculating solutions of structured population equ at ions has received little attentio n except for the simplesi case of pure age dependence. Tbe two papers in Ibis section both deal with models in which the r-state variable und er consideration is physiological age (compare part A. remark fV.1.2.3).
