Abstract
Large-time behavior of solutions of the one-dimensional discrete Boltzmann equation is studied. Under suitable assumptions it is proved that as time tends to infinity, the solution approaches a function which is constructed explicitly in terms of the self-similar solutions of the Burgers equation and the linear heat equation.
