The paper reviews the mathematical models of transmission of infection that have been put forward for representing the spread of HIV infection and AIDS. It describes and compares the main models that have been proposed and thereby provides some guidance on how such models might be constructed and utilised. There is also discussion of the importance of constructing such mathematical models of transmission of infection which further our understanding of the transmission dynamics of the epidemic and help to identify important epidemiological parameters and their likely influence on the epidemic's course.
