The aggregation process in populations of Dictyostelium discoideum is mediated by cell communication through cyclic AMP (cAMP) signals and the chemotactic response of the cells to concentration gradients of cAMP. In the present paper several simple algorithms that describe cell behavior are used to

Dictyostelium discoideum slugs show a pronounced thermotaxis. We have modelled the motion of the D. discoideum slug in the absence and in the presence of a thermal gradient. Our model is an extension of the hybrid cellular automata/partial di!erential equation model, as formulated by Savill and Hoge
