Abstract: The parameters of models of morphogenesis can be considered universal in case they have biological meaning and their values can be freely exchanged between models of different classes. In the scope of this work exchange of chemical intercellular signals was chosen as the main mechanism controlling the activity of cells. For this case a set of universal parameters was obtained and it two models of morphogenesis, the discrete imitational and the average quantitative one, were built on this base.

Key words: morphogenesis modelling, intercellular signal exchange, coordination of different classes of models.
