A worm spread model concerning impulsive control strategy is proposed and analyzed We prove that there exists a globallyattractive virus-free periodic solution when the vaccination rate is larger than 120579
1 Moreover we show that the system is uniformly
persistent if the vaccination rate is less than 1205791 Some numerical simulations are also given to illustrate our main results
1 Introduction
Computer virus is a kind of computer program that canreplicate itself and spread from one computer to othersincluding viruses worms and trojan horses Worms usesystem vulnerability to search and attack computers Ashardware and software technologies develop and computernetworks become an essential tool for daily life worms startto be a major threat In June 2010 the Belarusian securityfirm Virus Block Ada discovered deadly Stuxnet worm TheStuxnet worm is the first known example of a cyber-weaponthat is designed not just to steal and manipulate data but toattack a processing system and cause physical damage TheStuxnet worm is the first cyber-attack of its kind and hasinfected thousands of computer systems worldwide
Consequently the trial on better understanding thewormpropagation dynamics is an important matter for improvingthe safety and reliability in computer systems and networksSimilar to the biological viruses there are two ways to studythis problem microscopic and macroscopic Following amacroscopic approach since [1 2] took the first step towardsmodeling the spread behavior of worms much effort hasbeen done in the area of developing a mathematical modelfor the worms propagation [3ndash13] These models provide areasonable qualitative understanding of the conditions underwhich viruses spread much faster than others and why
In [7] the authors investigated a differential SEIR modelby making the following assumptions (Figure 1)
A population size119873(119905) that is the total nodes at any time119905 in the computer network is partitioned into subclasses of
nodes which are susceptible exposed (infected but not yetinfectious) infectious and recovered with sizes denoted by119878(119905) 119864(119905) 119868(119905) and 119877(119905) respectively
One has
119873(119905) = 119878 (119905) + 119864 (119905) + 119868 (119905) + 119877 (119905)
1198781015840(119905) = 119887 minus 120582119868119878 minus 119901119887119864 minus 119902119887119868 minus 119889119878 + 120577119877
1198641015840(119905) = 120582119868119878 + 119901119887119864 + 119902119887119868 minus 120576119864 minus 119889119864
1198681015840(119905) = 120576119864 minus 120574119868 minus 119889119868 minus 120578119868
1198771015840(119905) = 120574119868 minus 120577119877 minus 119889119877

where 119887 119889 and 120582 are positive constants and 120576 120578 120574 120577 arenonnegative constants The constant 119887 is the recruitment rateof susceptible nodes to the computer network 119889 is the percapita natural mortality rate (ie the crashing of nodes dueto the reason other than the attack of worms) 120576 is the rateconstant for nodes leaving the exposed class 119864 for infectiveclass 119868 120574 is the rate constant for nodes leaving the infectiveclass 119868 for recovered class 119877 120578 is the disease related death rate(ie crashing of nodes due to the attack of worms) in the class119868 and 120577 is the rate constant for nodes becoming susceptibleagain after recovering
In the SEIRS model the flow is from class 119878 to class 119864class 119864 to class 119868 class 119868 to class 119877 and again class 119877 toclass 119878 For the vertical transformation we assume that afraction119901 and a fraction 119902 of the new nodes from the exposedand the infectious classes respectively are introduced into

As we know antivirus software is a kind of computerprogramwhich can detect and eliminate knownwormThereare two common methods to detect worms using a list ofworm signature definition and using a heuristic algorithm tofindworm based on common behaviors It has been observedthat it does not always work in detecting a novel worm byusing the heuristic algorithm On the other hand obviouslyit is impossible for antivirus software to find a new wormsignature definition on the dated list So to keep the antivirussoftware in high efficiency it is important to ensure thatit is updated Based on the previous facts we propose animpulsive system to model the process of periodic installingor updating antivirus software on susceptible computers atfixed time for controlling the spread of worm
Based on the previous facts we propose the followingassumptions
(H1) the antivirus software is installed or updated at time119905 = 119896120591 (119896 isin 119873) where 120591 is the period of the impulsiveeffect
(H2) 119878 computers are successfully vaccinated from 119878 classto 119877 class with rate 120579 (0 lt 120579 lt 1)
According to the previous assumptions (H1)-(H2) andfor the reason of simplicity we propose the following model(Figure 2)
1198781015840(119905) = 119887 minus 120582119868119878 minus 119901119887119864 minus 119902119887119868 minus 119889119878 + 120577119877
1198641015840(119905) = 120582119868119878 + 119901119887119864 + 119902119887119868 minus 120576119864 minus 119889119864
1198681015840(119905) = 120576119864 minus 120574119868 minus 119889119868 minus 120578119868
1198771015840(119905) = 120574119868 minus 120577119877 minus 119889119877
119905 = 119896120591 119896 isin 119885+
119878 (119905+) = (1 minus 120579) 119878 (119905)
119864 (119905+) = 119864 (119905)
119868 (119905+) = 119868 (119905)
119877 (119905+) = 119877 (119905) + 120579119878 (119905)
119905 = 119896120591 119896 isin 119885+

The total population size 119873(119905) can be determined by 119873(119905) =119878(119905) + 119864(119905) + 119868(119905) + 119877(119905) to form the differential equation
1198731015840(119905) = 119887 minus 119889119873 (119905) minus 120578119868 (119905) (3)

2 Global Attractivity of Virus-FreePeriodic Solution
To prove our main results we state three lemmas which willbe essential to our proofs
Lemma 1 (see [14]) Consider the following impulsive differen-tial equations
(119905) = 119886 minus 119887119906 (119905) 119905 = 119896120591
119906 (119905+) = (1 minus 120579) 119906 (119905) 119905 = 119896120591
(9)
where 119886 gt 0 119887 gt 0 and 0 lt 120579 lt 1 Then system (9) has aunique positive periodic solution

119896120591 lt 119905 le (119896 + 1) 120591
(10)
which is globally asymptotically stable there 119906lowast = 119886(1minus120579)(1minus

)119887(1 minus (1 minus 120579)119890minus119887120591
)
If 119868(119905) equiv 0 we have the following limit systems
1198781015840(119905) = 119887 minus 120582119868119878 minus 119901119887119864 minus 119902119887119868

1198641015840(119905) = 119901119887119864 minus 120576119864 minus 119889119864

119878 (119905+) = (1 minus 120579) 119878 (119905)
119864 (119905+) = 119864 (119905)
119873 (119905+) = 119873 (119905)
119905 = 119896120591 119896 isin 119885+

(12)
According to Lemma 1 we know that periodic solution ofsystem (12) is of the form
119878119890(119905) =
(120583 (1 minus 119901) + V) 119887

and it is globally asymptotically stable where 119878lowast = ((1minus119901)119887+
(V119887120583))(1 minus 120579)(119890(120583+V)120591 minus 1)(120583 + V)(119890(120583+V)120591 minus 1 + 120579)
Theorem 2 Let (119878(119905) 119864(119905) 119868(119905)119873(119905)) be any solution ofsystem (6) with initial values 119878(0+) gt 0 119864(0+) gt 0 119868(0+) gt 0
and 119873(0+) gt 0 then (119878119890(119905) 0 0 119887119889) is locally asymptotically
stable provided that 119901119887 minus 119889 minus 120576 lt 0 and 1198770lt 1 where

Proof The local stability of virus-free periodic solution maybe determined by considering the behaviors of a smallamplitude perturbation of the solution Define 119908(119905) = 119878(119905) minus
119878119890(119905) 119909(119905) = 119864(119905) 119910(119905) = 119868(119905) and 119911(119905) = 119873(119905)minus119887119889 and then
the linearized system of system (6) reads as
1199081015840(119905) = minus (119889 + 120577)119908 (119905) minus (119901119887 + 120577) 119909 (119905)

119909 (119905+) = 119909 (119905)
119910 (119905+) = 119910 (119905)

Proof Because 119890119909 minus 1 gt 119909 for 119909 gt 0 we have

ByTheorem 2 we know that (119878119890(119905) 0 0 119887119889) is locally asymp-

Theorem 2 determines the global attractivity of (6) inΩ for the case 119877
0lt 1 Its realistic implication is that the
infected computers vanish so the worms are removed fromthe network Corollary 4 implies that the computer virus willdisappear if the vaccination rate is less than 120579

3 Permanence
In this section we say that the worm is local if the infectedpopulation persists above a certain positive level for suffi-ciently large timeThe local of worm can be well captured andstudied through the notion of permanence
Definition 5 System (6) is said to be uniformly persistent ifthere is an 120593 gt 0 (independent of the initial data) such thatevery solution (119878(119905) 119868(119905) 119877(119905)119873(119905)) with initial conditions(8) of system (6) satisfies

Theorem 6 Suppose that 1198771gt 1 and 119901119887 minus 119889 minus 120576 lt 0 Then
there is a positive constant 119898119868such that each positive solution

From the second equation of (6) we have

(31)
From the third equation of (6) we have

Note that 1198771gt 1 we have

This contradicts 119868(119905) le 119868lowast Hence we can claim that for any

119868 (119905) lt 119868lowast

By the claim we are left to consider two cases First 119868(119905) ge 119868lowast
for 119905 large enough Second 119868(119905) oscillates about 119868lowast for 119905 largeenough Obviously there is nothing to prove for the first caseFor the second case we can choose 119905
2gt 1199051 and 120585 gt 0 satisfy
119868 (1199052) = 119868 (119905

2lt 119905 lt 119905
2+ 120585 (35)
119868(119905) is uniformly continuous since the positive solutions of (6)are ultimately bounded and 119868(119905) is not affected by impulses
Therefore it is certain that there exists a 120578 (0 lt 120578 lt 120591 and120578 is independent of the choice of 119905
2) such that
119868 (119905) ge119868lowast

2le 119905 le 119905

In this case we consider the following three possible cases interm of the sizes of 120578 120585 and 120591Case 1 If 120585 le 120578 lt 120591 then it is obvious that 119868(119905) ge Ilowast2 for119905 isin [1199052 1199052+ 120585]
Case 2 If 120578 lt 120585 le 120591 then from the second equation of system(6) we obtain 119868(119905) gt minus(119889 + 120574 + 120578)119868(119905)
Since 119868(1199052) = 119868lowast it is obvious that 119868(119905) gt 119868
lowast119890minus(119889+120574+120578)120591
= 119868lowastlowast
for 119905 isin [1199052 1199052+ 120585]
Case 3 If 120578 lt 120591 le 120585 it is easy to obtain that 119868(119905) gt 119868lowastlowast for
119905 isin [1199052 1199052+ 120591] Then proceeding exactly as the proof for the
previous claim we have that 119868(119905) gt 119868lowastlowast for 119905 isin [119905
2+ 120591 1199052+ 120585]
Owing to the randomicity of 1199052 we can obtain that there
exists119898119868= min119868lowast2 119868lowastlowast such 119868(119905) gt 119898

4 Numerical Simulations
In this section we have performed some numerical simula-tions to show the geometric impression of our results
To demonstrate the global attractivity of virus-free peri-odic solution of system (6) we take following set parametervalues 119887 = 21 120582 = 02 119901 = 01 119902 = 015 119889 = 03 120577=06 120576 = 04 120574 = 06 120591 = 05 120578 = 03 and 120579 = 04 In thiscase we have 119877
0= 06886 lt 1 In Figures 3(a) 3(b) 3(c) and
3(d) we have displayed respectively the susceptible exposedinfected and recovered population of system (6) with initialconditions 119878(0) = 6 119864(0) = 1 119868(0) = 1 and 119877(0) = 8
To demonstrate the permanence of system (6) we takethe following set parameter values 119887 = 27 120582 = 02 119901 = 01119902 = 015 119889 = 03 120577 = 06 120576 = 04 120574 = 06 120591 = 05 120578 = 03
and 120579 = 01 In this case we have 1198771= 16496 gt 1 In Figures
4(a) 4(b) 4(c) and 4(d) we have displayed respectively thesusceptible exposed infected and recovered populations ofsystem (6) with initial conditions 119878(0) = 6119864(0) = 1 119868(0) = 1

5 Conclusion
We have analyzed the SEIRS model with pulse vaccinationand varying total population sizeWe have shown that119877
1gt 1
or 120579 lt 1205791implies that the worm will be local whereas 119877
1lt 1
or 120579 gt 1205791implies that the worm will fade out We have also
established sufficient condition for the permanence of themodel Our results indicate that a large pulse vaccination ratewill lead to eradication of the worm

As we know antivirus software is a kind of computerprogramwhich can detect and eliminate knownwormThereare two common methods to detect worms using a list ofworm signature definition and using a heuristic algorithm tofindworm based on common behaviors It has been observedthat it does not always work in detecting a novel worm byusing the heuristic algorithm On the other hand obviouslyit is impossible for antivirus software to find a new wormsignature definition on the dated list So to keep the antivirussoftware in high efficiency it is important to ensure thatit is updated Based on the previous facts we propose animpulsive system to model the process of periodic installingor updating antivirus software on susceptible computers atfixed time for controlling the spread of worm
Based on the previous facts we propose the followingassumptions
(H1) the antivirus software is installed or updated at time119905 = 119896120591 (119896 isin 119873) where 120591 is the period of the impulsiveeffect
(H2) 119878 computers are successfully vaccinated from 119878 classto 119877 class with rate 120579 (0 lt 120579 lt 1)
According to the previous assumptions (H1)-(H2) andfor the reason of simplicity we propose the following model(Figure 2)
1198781015840(119905) = 119887 minus 120582119868119878 minus 119901119887119864 minus 119902119887119868 minus 119889119878 + 120577119877

1198681015840(119905) = 120576119864 minus 120574119868 minus 119889119868 minus 120578119868
1198771015840(119905) = 120574119868 minus 120577119877 minus 119889119877

119878 (119905+) = (1 minus 120579) 119878 (119905)
119864 (119905+) = 119864 (119905)
119868 (119905+) = 119868 (119905)
119877 (119905+) = 119877 (119905) + 120579119878 (119905)

The total population size 119873(119905) can be determined by 119873(119905) =119878(119905) + 119864(119905) + 119868(119905) + 119877(119905) to form the differential equation

2 Global Attractivity of Virus-FreePeriodic Solution
To prove our main results we state three lemmas which willbe essential to our proofs
Lemma 1 (see [14]) Consider the following impulsive differen-tial equations
(119905) = 119886 minus 119887119906 (119905) 119905 = 119896120591
119906 (119905+) = (1 minus 120579) 119906 (119905) 119905 = 119896120591
(9)
where 119886 gt 0 119887 gt 0 and 0 lt 120579 lt 1 Then system (9) has aunique positive periodic solution
119906119890(119905) =
119886
119887+ (119906lowastminus119886
119887) 119890minus119887(119905minus119896120591)
119896120591 lt 119905 le (119896 + 1) 120591
(10)
which is globally asymptotically stable there 119906lowast = 119886(1minus120579)(1minus
119890minus119887120591
)119887(1 minus (1 minus 120579)119890minus119887120591
)
If 119868(119905) equiv 0 we have the following limit systems
1198781015840(119905) = 119887 minus 120582119868119878 minus 119901119887119864 minus 119902119887119868
minus 119889119878 + 120577 (119873 minus 119878 minus 119864)
1198641015840(119905) = 119901119887119864 minus 120576119864 minus 119889119864
1198731015840(119905) = 119887 minus 119889119873
119905 = 119896120591 119896 isin 119885+
119878 (119905+) = (1 minus 120579) 119878 (119905)
119864 (119905+) = 119864 (119905)
119873 (119905+) = 119873 (119905)
119905 = 119896120591 119896 isin 119885+
(11)
When119901119887minus119889minus120576 lt 0 there exists 1199051when 119905 gt 119905

119873(119905) = 119887119889 We have the following limit systems

V119887

119878 (119905+) = (1 minus 120579) 119878 (119905) 119905 = 119896119879
(12)
According to Lemma 1 we know that periodic solution ofsystem (12) is of the form
119878119890(119905) =
(120583 (1 minus 119901) + V) 119887
120583 (120583 + V)

119896120591 lt 119905 le (119896 + 1) 120591
(13)
and it is globally asymptotically stable where 119878lowast = ((1minus119901)119887+
(V119887120583))(1 minus 120579)(119890(120583+V)120591 minus 1)(120583 + V)(119890(120583+V)120591 minus 1 + 120579)
Theorem 2 Let (119878(119905) 119864(119905) 119868(119905)119873(119905)) be any solution ofsystem (6) with initial values 119878(0+) gt 0 119864(0+) gt 0 119868(0+) gt 0
and 119873(0+) gt 0 then (119878119890(119905) 0 0 119887119889) is locally asymptotically
stable provided that 119901119887 minus 119889 minus 120576 lt 0 and 1198770lt 1 where
1198770=

(119889 + 120576 minus 119901119887) (120574 + 119889 + 120578) 120591 minus 120576119902119887120591

Proof The local stability of virus-free periodic solution maybe determined by considering the behaviors of a smallamplitude perturbation of the solution Define 119908(119905) = 119878(119905) minus
119878119890(119905) 119909(119905) = 119864(119905) 119910(119905) = 119868(119905) and 119911(119905) = 119873(119905)minus119887119889 and then
the linearized system of system (6) reads as

Theorem 2 determines the global attractivity of (6) inΩ for the case 119877
0lt 1 Its realistic implication is that the
infected computers vanish so the worms are removed fromthe network Corollary 4 implies that the computer virus willdisappear if the vaccination rate is less than 120579

3 Permanence
In this section we say that the worm is local if the infectedpopulation persists above a certain positive level for suffi-ciently large timeThe local of worm can be well captured andstudied through the notion of permanence

119868(119905) is uniformly continuous since the positive solutions of (6)are ultimately bounded and 119868(119905) is not affected by impulses
Therefore it is certain that there exists a 120578 (0 lt 120578 lt 120591 and120578 is independent of the choice of 119905

Case 2 If 120578 lt 120585 le 120591 then from the second equation of system(6) we obtain 119868(119905) gt minus(119889 + 120574 + 120578)119868(119905)
Since 119868(1199052) = 119868lowast it is obvious that 119868(119905) gt 119868

Case 3 If 120578 lt 120591 le 120585 it is easy to obtain that 119868(119905) gt 119868lowastlowast for
119905 isin [1199052 1199052+ 120591] Then proceeding exactly as the proof for the

The proof of Theorem 6 is completed
Theorem 7 Suppose 1198771gt 1 Then system (6) is permanent

Consider the following comparison system
1(119905) = 119887 minus 119901119887
2minus 1199021198872minus (119889 + 120582119887) 119911
1(119905) 119905 = 119896120591
1199111(119905+) = (1 minus 120579) 119911
1(119905) 119905 = 119896120591
(38)
By Lemma 1 we know that for any sufficiently small 120576 gt 0there exists a 119905

4 Numerical Simulations
In this section we have performed some numerical simula-tions to show the geometric impression of our results
To demonstrate the global attractivity of virus-free peri-odic solution of system (6) we take following set parametervalues 119887 = 21 120582 = 02 119901 = 01 119902 = 015 119889 = 03 120577=06 120576 = 04 120574 = 06 120591 = 05 120578 = 03 and 120579 = 04 In thiscase we have 119877
0= 06886 lt 1 In Figures 3(a) 3(b) 3(c) and
3(d) we have displayed respectively the susceptible exposedinfected and recovered population of system (6) with initialconditions 119878(0) = 6 119864(0) = 1 119868(0) = 1 and 119877(0) = 8
To demonstrate the permanence of system (6) we takethe following set parameter values 119887 = 27 120582 = 02 119901 = 01119902 = 015 119889 = 03 120577 = 06 120576 = 04 120574 = 06 120591 = 05 120578 = 03
and 120579 = 01 In this case we have 1198771= 16496 gt 1 In Figures
4(a) 4(b) 4(c) and 4(d) we have displayed respectively thesusceptible exposed infected and recovered populations ofsystem (6) with initial conditions 119878(0) = 6119864(0) = 1 119868(0) = 1

5 Conclusion
We have analyzed the SEIRS model with pulse vaccinationand varying total population sizeWe have shown that119877
1gt 1
or 120579 lt 1205791implies that the worm will be local whereas 119877
1lt 1
or 120579 gt 1205791implies that the worm will fade out We have also
established sufficient condition for the permanence of themodel Our results indicate that a large pulse vaccination ratewill lead to eradication of the worm

To prove our main results we state three lemmas which willbe essential to our proofs
Lemma 1 (see [14]) Consider the following impulsive differen-tial equations
(119905) = 119886 minus 119887119906 (119905) 119905 = 119896120591
119906 (119905+) = (1 minus 120579) 119906 (119905) 119905 = 119896120591
(9)
where 119886 gt 0 119887 gt 0 and 0 lt 120579 lt 1 Then system (9) has aunique positive periodic solution

119896120591 lt 119905 le (119896 + 1) 120591
(10)
which is globally asymptotically stable there 119906lowast = 119886(1minus120579)(1minus

If 119868(119905) equiv 0 we have the following limit systems

(12)
According to Lemma 1 we know that periodic solution ofsystem (12) is of the form
119878119890(119905) =

and it is globally asymptotically stable where 119878lowast = ((1minus119901)119887+

Theorem 2 Let (119878(119905) 119864(119905) 119868(119905)119873(119905)) be any solution ofsystem (6) with initial values 119878(0+) gt 0 119864(0+) gt 0 119868(0+) gt 0
and 119873(0+) gt 0 then (119878119890(119905) 0 0 119887119889) is locally asymptotically
stable provided that 119901119887 minus 119889 minus 120576 lt 0 and 1198770lt 1 where

Proof The local stability of virus-free periodic solution maybe determined by considering the behaviors of a smallamplitude perturbation of the solution Define 119908(119905) = 119878(119905) minus
119878119890(119905) 119909(119905) = 119864(119905) 119910(119905) = 119868(119905) and 119911(119905) = 119873(119905)minus119887119889 and then
the linearized system of system (6) reads as
1199081015840(119905) = minus (119889 + 120577)119908 (119905) minus (119901119887 + 120577) 119909 (119905)

1199111015840(119905) = minus120578119910 (119905) minus 119889119911 (119905)
119905 = 119896120591 119896isin119885+
119908 (119905+) = 119908 (119905)
119909 (119905+) = 119909 (119905)
119910 (119905+) = 119910 (119905)
119911 (119905+) = 119911 (119905)

Let Φ(119905) be the fundamental solution matrix of system (15)and then Φ(119905)must satisfy

and Φ(0) = 119868 the identity matrix We can easily see thattwo eigenvalues of the matrix 119860 are minus119889 minus 120577 and minus119889 and theother two eigenvalues are determined by the 2 times 2 matrix 119861 =

Theorem 2 determines the global attractivity of (6) inΩ for the case 119877
0lt 1 Its realistic implication is that the
infected computers vanish so the worms are removed fromthe network Corollary 4 implies that the computer virus willdisappear if the vaccination rate is less than 120579

3 Permanence
In this section we say that the worm is local if the infectedpopulation persists above a certain positive level for suffi-ciently large timeThe local of worm can be well captured andstudied through the notion of permanence

Note that 1198771gt 1 we have

This contradicts 119868(119905) le 119868lowast Hence we can claim that for any

By the claim we are left to consider two cases First 119868(119905) ge 119868lowast
for 119905 large enough Second 119868(119905) oscillates about 119868lowast for 119905 largeenough Obviously there is nothing to prove for the first caseFor the second case we can choose 119905

2lt 119905 lt 119905

119868(119905) is uniformly continuous since the positive solutions of (6)are ultimately bounded and 119868(119905) is not affected by impulses
Therefore it is certain that there exists a 120578 (0 lt 120578 lt 120591 and120578 is independent of the choice of 119905

In this case we consider the following three possible cases interm of the sizes of 120578 120585 and 120591Case 1 If 120585 le 120578 lt 120591 then it is obvious that 119868(119905) ge Ilowast2 for119905 isin [1199052 1199052+ 120585]
Case 2 If 120578 lt 120585 le 120591 then from the second equation of system(6) we obtain 119868(119905) gt minus(119889 + 120574 + 120578)119868(119905)
Since 119868(1199052) = 119868lowast it is obvious that 119868(119905) gt 119868

119905 isin [1199052 1199052+ 120591] Then proceeding exactly as the proof for the

2+ 120591 1199052+ 120585]
Owing to the randomicity of 1199052 we can obtain that there

every solution of system (6) with initial conditions (8) willeventually enter and remain in region Ω

4 Numerical Simulations
In this section we have performed some numerical simula-tions to show the geometric impression of our results
To demonstrate the global attractivity of virus-free peri-odic solution of system (6) we take following set parametervalues 119887 = 21 120582 = 02 119901 = 01 119902 = 015 119889 = 03 120577=06 120576 = 04 120574 = 06 120591 = 05 120578 = 03 and 120579 = 04 In thiscase we have 119877
0= 06886 lt 1 In Figures 3(a) 3(b) 3(c) and
3(d) we have displayed respectively the susceptible exposedinfected and recovered population of system (6) with initialconditions 119878(0) = 6 119864(0) = 1 119868(0) = 1 and 119877(0) = 8
To demonstrate the permanence of system (6) we takethe following set parameter values 119887 = 27 120582 = 02 119901 = 01119902 = 015 119889 = 03 120577 = 06 120576 = 04 120574 = 06 120591 = 05 120578 = 03
and 120579 = 01 In this case we have 1198771= 16496 gt 1 In Figures
4(a) 4(b) 4(c) and 4(d) we have displayed respectively thesusceptible exposed infected and recovered populations ofsystem (6) with initial conditions 119878(0) = 6119864(0) = 1 119868(0) = 1
and 119877(0) = 8

5 Conclusion
We have analyzed the SEIRS model with pulse vaccinationand varying total population sizeWe have shown that119877
1gt 1
or 120579 lt 1205791implies that the worm will be local whereas 119877
1lt 1
or 120579 gt 1205791implies that the worm will fade out We have also
established sufficient condition for the permanence of themodel Our results indicate that a large pulse vaccination ratewill lead to eradication of the worm

Theorem 3 If 1198771le 1 and 119901119887minus119889minus120576 lt 0 then (119878

Proof Because 119890119909 minus 1 gt 119909 for 119909 gt 0 we have

ByTheorem 2 we know that (119878119890(119905) 0 0 119887119889) is locally asymp-

Let
119871 = 120576119864 minus (119901119887 minus 120576 minus 119889) 119868 (21)
Then
1198711015840= 1205761198641015840minus (119901119887 minus 120576 minus 119889) 119868

Corollary 4 The virus-free periodic solution (Se(t) 0 0 bd)of system (6) is globally attractive if 120579 gt 120579

Theorem 2 determines the global attractivity of (6) inΩ for the case 119877
0lt 1 Its realistic implication is that the
infected computers vanish so the worms are removed fromthe network Corollary 4 implies that the computer virus willdisappear if the vaccination rate is less than 120579

3 Permanence
In this section we say that the worm is local if the infectedpopulation persists above a certain positive level for suffi-ciently large timeThe local of worm can be well captured andstudied through the notion of permanence
Definition 5 System (6) is said to be uniformly persistent ifthere is an 120593 gt 0 (independent of the initial data) such thatevery solution (119878(119905) 119868(119905) 119877(119905)119873(119905)) with initial conditions(8) of system (6) satisfies

Theorem 6 Suppose that 1198771gt 1 and 119901119887 minus 119889 minus 120576 lt 0 Then

Suppose that 119868(119905) lt 119868lowast for all 119905 gt 119905

From the second equation of (6) we have
1198641015840(119905) = 120582119868119878 + 119901119887119864 + 119902119887119868 minus 120576119864 minus 119889119864

(31)
From the third equation of (6) we have
1198681015840(119905) = 120576119864 minus 120574119868 minus 119889119868 minus 120578119868

(32)
Note that 1198771gt 1 we have
119868 (119905) gt120576

120582119868lowast119878lowast+ 119902119887119868lowast
120576 + 119889 minus 119901119887gt 119868lowast (33)
This contradicts 119868(119905) le 119868lowast Hence we can claim that for any
1199050gt 0 it is impossible that
119868 (119905) lt 119868lowast
forall119905 ge t0 (34)
By the claim we are left to consider two cases First 119868(119905) ge 119868lowast
for 119905 large enough Second 119868(119905) oscillates about 119868lowast for 119905 largeenough Obviously there is nothing to prove for the first caseFor the second case we can choose 119905
2gt 1199051 and 120585 gt 0 satisfy
119868 (1199052) = 119868 (119905
2+ 120585) = 119868
lowast for 119905
2lt 119905 lt 119905
2+ 120585 (35)
119868(119905) is uniformly continuous since the positive solutions of (6)are ultimately bounded and 119868(119905) is not affected by impulses
Therefore it is certain that there exists a 120578 (0 lt 120578 lt 120591 and120578 is independent of the choice of 119905
2) such that
119868 (119905) ge119868lowast
2 for 119905
2le 119905 le 119905
2+ 120578 (36)
In this case we consider the following three possible cases interm of the sizes of 120578 120585 and 120591Case 1 If 120585 le 120578 lt 120591 then it is obvious that 119868(119905) ge Ilowast2 for119905 isin [1199052 1199052+ 120585]
Case 2 If 120578 lt 120585 le 120591 then from the second equation of system(6) we obtain 119868(119905) gt minus(119889 + 120574 + 120578)119868(119905)
Since 119868(1199052) = 119868lowast it is obvious that 119868(119905) gt 119868
lowast119890minus(119889+120574+120578)120591
= 119868lowastlowast
for 119905 isin [1199052 1199052+ 120585]
Case 3 If 120578 lt 120591 le 120585 it is easy to obtain that 119868(119905) gt 119868lowastlowast for
119905 isin [1199052 1199052+ 120591] Then proceeding exactly as the proof for the
previous claim we have that 119868(119905) gt 119868lowastlowast for 119905 isin [119905
2+ 120591 1199052+ 120585]
Owing to the randomicity of 1199052 we can obtain that there
exists119898119868= min119868lowast2 119868lowastlowast such 119868(119905) gt 119898
119868holds for all 119905 gt 119905

The proof of Theorem 6 is completed
Theorem 7 Suppose 1198771gt 1 Then system (6) is permanent
Proof Let (119878(119905) 119864(119905) 119868(119905)119873(119905)) be any solution of system (6)First from the first equation of system (6) we have

2minus 1199021198872minus (119889 + 120582119887) 119878 (37)
Consider the following comparison system
1(119905) = 119887 minus 119901119887
2minus 1199021198872minus (119889 + 120582119887) 119911
1(119905) 119905 = 119896120591
1199111(119905+) = (1 minus 120579) 119911
1(119905) 119905 = 119896120591
(38)
By Lemma 1 we know that for any sufficiently small 120576 gt 0there exists a 119905
1(1199051is sufficiently large) such that
119878 (119905) ge 1199111(119905) gt 119911

4 Numerical Simulations
In this section we have performed some numerical simula-tions to show the geometric impression of our results
To demonstrate the global attractivity of virus-free peri-odic solution of system (6) we take following set parametervalues 119887 = 21 120582 = 02 119901 = 01 119902 = 015 119889 = 03 120577=06 120576 = 04 120574 = 06 120591 = 05 120578 = 03 and 120579 = 04 In thiscase we have 119877
0= 06886 lt 1 In Figures 3(a) 3(b) 3(c) and
3(d) we have displayed respectively the susceptible exposedinfected and recovered population of system (6) with initialconditions 119878(0) = 6 119864(0) = 1 119868(0) = 1 and 119877(0) = 8
To demonstrate the permanence of system (6) we takethe following set parameter values 119887 = 27 120582 = 02 119901 = 01119902 = 015 119889 = 03 120577 = 06 120576 = 04 120574 = 06 120591 = 05 120578 = 03
and 120579 = 01 In this case we have 1198771= 16496 gt 1 In Figures
4(a) 4(b) 4(c) and 4(d) we have displayed respectively thesusceptible exposed infected and recovered populations ofsystem (6) with initial conditions 119878(0) = 6119864(0) = 1 119868(0) = 1

5 Conclusion
We have analyzed the SEIRS model with pulse vaccinationand varying total population sizeWe have shown that119877
1gt 1
or 120579 lt 1205791implies that the worm will be local whereas 119877
1lt 1
or 120579 gt 1205791implies that the worm will fade out We have also
established sufficient condition for the permanence of themodel Our results indicate that a large pulse vaccination ratewill lead to eradication of the worm

120576 + 119889 minus 119901119887
(31)
From the third equation of (6) we have
1198681015840(119905) = 120576119864 minus 120574119868 minus 119889119868 minus 120578119868

(32)
Note that 1198771gt 1 we have
119868 (119905) gt120576

120582119868lowast119878lowast+ 119902119887119868lowast
120576 + 119889 minus 119901119887gt 119868lowast (33)
This contradicts 119868(119905) le 119868lowast Hence we can claim that for any
1199050gt 0 it is impossible that
119868 (119905) lt 119868lowast
forall119905 ge t0 (34)
By the claim we are left to consider two cases First 119868(119905) ge 119868lowast
for 119905 large enough Second 119868(119905) oscillates about 119868lowast for 119905 largeenough Obviously there is nothing to prove for the first caseFor the second case we can choose 119905
2gt 1199051 and 120585 gt 0 satisfy
119868 (1199052) = 119868 (119905
2+ 120585) = 119868
lowast for 119905
2lt 119905 lt 119905
2+ 120585 (35)
119868(119905) is uniformly continuous since the positive solutions of (6)are ultimately bounded and 119868(119905) is not affected by impulses
Therefore it is certain that there exists a 120578 (0 lt 120578 lt 120591 and120578 is independent of the choice of 119905
2) such that
119868 (119905) ge119868lowast
2 for 119905
2le 119905 le 119905
2+ 120578 (36)
In this case we consider the following three possible cases interm of the sizes of 120578 120585 and 120591Case 1 If 120585 le 120578 lt 120591 then it is obvious that 119868(119905) ge Ilowast2 for119905 isin [1199052 1199052+ 120585]
Case 2 If 120578 lt 120585 le 120591 then from the second equation of system(6) we obtain 119868(119905) gt minus(119889 + 120574 + 120578)119868(119905)
Since 119868(1199052) = 119868lowast it is obvious that 119868(119905) gt 119868
lowast119890minus(119889+120574+120578)120591
= 119868lowastlowast
for 119905 isin [1199052 1199052+ 120585]
Case 3 If 120578 lt 120591 le 120585 it is easy to obtain that 119868(119905) gt 119868lowastlowast for
119905 isin [1199052 1199052+ 120591] Then proceeding exactly as the proof for the
previous claim we have that 119868(119905) gt 119868lowastlowast for 119905 isin [119905
2+ 120591 1199052+ 120585]
Owing to the randomicity of 1199052 we can obtain that there
exists119898119868= min119868lowast2 119868lowastlowast such 119868(119905) gt 119898
119868holds for all 119905 gt 119905
119901
The proof of Theorem 6 is completed
Theorem 7 Suppose 1198771gt 1 Then system (6) is permanent
Proof Let (119878(119905) 119864(119905) 119868(119905)119873(119905)) be any solution of system (6)First from the first equation of system (6) we have
1198781015840(119905) gt 119887 minus 119901119887
2minus 1199021198872minus (119889 + 120582119887) 119878 (37)
Consider the following comparison system
1(119905) = 119887 minus 119901119887
2minus 1199021198872minus (119889 + 120582119887) 119911
1(119905) 119905 = 119896120591
1199111(119905+) = (1 minus 120579) 119911
1(119905) 119905 = 119896120591
(38)
By Lemma 1 we know that for any sufficiently small 120576 gt 0there exists a 119905
1(1199051is sufficiently large) such that
119878 (119905) ge 1199111(119905) gt 119911

1(119905) minus 120576

(119889 + 120582119887) (119890(119889+120582119887)120591 minus 1 + 120579)minus 120576 =119898

119896120591 lt 119905 le (119896 + 1) 120591

From (31) we have

5 Conclusion
We have analyzed the SEIRS model with pulse vaccinationand varying total population sizeWe have shown that119877
1gt 1
or 120579 lt 1205791implies that the worm will be local whereas 119877
1lt 1
or 120579 gt 1205791implies that the worm will fade out We have also
established sufficient condition for the permanence of themodel Our results indicate that a large pulse vaccination ratewill lead to eradication of the worm
