As the complexity of the world in which we live increases, system thinking is becoming a major factor in success and even in survival. This is why robust tools of complex dynamic systems can give answers to several problems and can be applied to many di erent areas, such as business, society and ecosystems, as well as in ordinary life such as compulsive shopping, drug abuse, tobacco addiction, obesity, etc. When experiments to test the real world cannot be carried out, simulation becomes the best way to learn about the dynamic of these systems. For this reason I am pleased to present this research, in which theory and practice of the dynamic systems are combined. It also embraces epidemiologic models of some parasitic diseases with transmission vector. The Toxoplasmosis and the bovine Babesiosis are parasitic diseases (zoonoses), which are spread through a transmission vector and a ect both human beings and livestock. As a public health problem, Toxoplasmosis causes high health care costs when treating unborn and newborn babies. It also causes a great amount of sick leaves. In addition to this, live stock economic sector in tropical countries, such as Colombia, must bear an extra cost.
