  • Decision trees, state-transition and Markov models
  • Microsimulation models
  • Discrete event simulation models
  • Infectious disease models
  • Other modelling approaches (e.g., agent-based models, system dynamics models, causal inference models, biologic systems models)
  • Handling uncertainty and variability
  • Handling dynamic transmissions and herd immunity
  • Handling individual behaviour and waiting lines
