The coding (programming) consists of a series of routines in R, a quality, open-source scientific computing system that is readily available from the internet. The routines are based on the method of lines (MOL), a general PDE algorithm that can be executed on modest computers within the basic R system. The reader can download and use the routines to confirm the model solutions reported in the book, then experiment with the model by varying the parameters and modifying\/extending the equations, and even studying alternative models with the PDE methodology demonstrated by the CV-ICI model.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eSpatiotemporal Modeling of Cancer Immunotherapy: Partial Differential Equation Analysis in R\u003c\/i\u003e facilitates the use of the model, and more generally, computer- based analysis of cancer immunotherapy mathematical models, as a step toward the development and quantitative evaluation of the immunotherapy approach to the treatment of cancer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo download the R routines, please visit: http: \/\/www.lehigh.edu\/ wes1\/ci_download\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e William E.
