Computational models have the potential to make a huge impact on our unders
tanding of normal and abnormal cardiac function. The aim of this article is
to review tools that have been developed to simulate the electrophysiology
of cardiac cells and tissue, and to show how computational models have bee
n used to gain insight into normal and abnormal action potential propagatio
n. Some of the practical problems experienced in the development and applic
ation of these models are described, and examples are given.
