This pages contains the mathematical and computational models we constructed in order to analyze the behaviour of the Division PoPper System. You can find the model of two systems (the proof of concept construct or the whole construct), different views on the system (the single cell behaviour or the behaviour of the population), different approaches to modeling (ODEs, CTMC, hybrid). Look at the table of contests belove for the section you are interested in.

The proof of concept system
As explained in the design section, the first part of our project consists in the realization of a proof of concept system. This is a smaller and less complex construct that we use to test our main assumption: the DNA region in between the two Dif sites is "flipped" (reversed) at each cell division. The model should help us in answering the following questions:
Since the mechanisms and the values that characterize the system are sometimes not known or time consuming/difficult to discovery in the lab, we use the models as "in silico" test. Thus our models should be dependent (functions of) the following quantities:
- Time needed
