The purpose of this talk was to present a very brief overview of theoretical models of diffraction in deep inelastic scattering (DIS). In particular, predictions for the behaviour of the diffractive structure functions F{sub 2}{sup D}, R{sup D} are presented. The measurement of these functions at both small and high values of the variable {beta} and their evolution with Q{sup 2} is expected to reveal crucial information concerning the underlying dynamics. This talk is based on the more extensive review which also discusses expectations for charm in diffraction and contains a more complete list of references.
