Kurzfassung englisch:
When it comes to modeling diseases with inhomogeneous populations a modular setup can be useful, because specific parts of the model can be easily xchanged or altered.
We propose a modular setup consisting of a population model and
a separate disease model, which interact on a specifically defined
interface. After that an economic cost model can be built and integrated in to the modular setup.
Aim of this work is to build a population model, in this case with
Austrian data, and to define the interface with the disease model, in this case an obesity model.
Obesity has become a major problem in Austria. According to (Rieder 2006), over 30% of the Austrian population is overweight and over 9%
is obese, resulting in over 227.7 million euro health care costs
in 2004.
