Flow of ions through voltage gatedchannels can be represented theoretically using stochastic differentialequations where the gating mechanism is represented by a Markov model. The flow through achannel can be manipulated using various drugs, and the effect of a given drugcan be reflected bychanging the Markov model.

This book describes mathematical models and numerical techniques for simulating the electrical activity in the heart. Particular focus is on efficient numerical methods for large scale simulations on both scalar and parallel computers.
