title: Mathematical modeling of electrical activity of the heart.
abstract: This paper reviews the literature on mathematical models of cardiac activation and evaluates these approaches against an analytical approach that includes both structure and membrane properties. The advantages and disadvantages of each methodology are described and directions for future research suggested.
