Abstract
Age is an important factor in the dynamics of epidemic process. Great attention has been paid to continuous age-structured epidemic models. The discrete epidemic models are in their infancy. In this paper a discrete age-structured epidemic SIS model is formulated. The dynamical behavior of this model is studied. The basic reproductive number is defined and threshold for the persistence or extinction of disease is found.
