This answers an open question posed by Mark Hovey about the possibility of describing KK-theory for C*-algebras using the language of Quillen model categories.Appeared in Contemporary Math #399: An Alpine Anthology of Homotopy Theory, Dominique Arlettaz and Katherine Hess editorsK-Theory and HomologyAlgebraic Topology46L80; 55U35Realizing Kasparov's KK-theory groups as the homotopy classes of maps of a Quillen model categorytext
