Abstract
In this chapter a hierarchy of kinetic and quasi-hydrodynamic semiconductor equations is introduced and described. The connections between the various (semi-) classical and quantum models are explained (Section 1.1). Three quasi-hydrodynamic equations are considered in more detail, and an outline of the contents of this work is presented (Section 1.2)
