  • Abstract
    Stage structured based population models have found many applications in the recent years. In this paper an age structured population model is developed and implemented to study the trends in the computer and video game playing population of US. The entire game paying population is divided into three compartments on the basis of the age group to which they belong. After simulating the mathematical model, a forecast of the number of game players in each stage as well as an approximation of the average age of game players in future has been made.
