“…Insights into HIV dynamics in vivo have been obtained from mathematical modelling (see e.g., ( Nowak and May, 2001 , Perelson and Nelson, 1999 )). Competition models have been formulated in the context of the dynamics of virus-host interactions in the past two decades ( Frost and McLean, 1994 , Korthals Altes and .Jansen, 2000 , McLean and Nowak, 1992 , Rong et al., 2007 , Smith and Wahl, 2004 , Smith and Wahl, 2005 , Wahl and Nowak, 2000 ). These models embedded the knowledge on the possible dynamics of HIV-1 infection into relatively complex systems of non-linear differential equations.…”
