What is PDE?
Population-Development-Environment.
Information about the history of the PDE case studies at IIASA, the aims and goals of the research, and the methodology used.

Motivation: Why this research is important.

Executive country summaries: The authors describe possible future development paths in the context of the HIV/AIDS pandemic for each of the case study countries.

PDE model descriptions: The research team developed complex national and case study simulation models for all three case study countries. The models consist of the following sectoral models, which are linked: population, HIV/AIDS, and education; economy (national economy and labor force models); and environment (water demand and supply). Short, easy-to-understand descriptions of the models are provided.

Run the PDE models: The PDE models for all three countries can be downloaded. The User's Manual contains the copyright, disclaimer, conditions of use, model descriptions, and examples on how to run the models.

Publications: A selection of publications on PDE Case Studies (partly downloadable).
