Optimal Control of Virus Spread under Different Conditions of Resources Limitations

The paper addresses the problem of human virus spread reduction when the resources
for the control actions are somehow limited. This kind of problem can be successfully solved in the
framework of the optimal control theory, where the best solution, which minimizes a cost function
while satisfying input constraints, can be provided. The problem is formulated in this contest for the
case of the HIV/AIDS virus, making use of a model that considers two classes of susceptible subjects,
