Critical Points for Random Boolean Networks
James F. Lynch
A model of cellular metabolism due to S. Kauffman is analyzed. It consists of a network of Boolean gates randomly assembled according to a probability distribution. It is shown tha…
On the Threshold of Chaos in Random Boolean Cellular Automata
James F. Lynch
A random boolean cellular automaton is a network of boolean gates where the inputs, the boolean function, and the initial state of each gate are chosen randomly. In this article, e…
A Criterion for Stability in Random Boolean Cellular Automata
James F. Lynch
Random boolean cellular automata are investigated, where each gate has two randomly chosen inputs and is randomly assigned a boolean function of its inputs. The effect of non-unifo…
Antichaos in a Class of Random Boolean Cellular Automata
James F. Lynch
A variant of Kauffman's model of cellular metabolism is presented. It is a randomly generated network of boolean gates, identical to Kauffman's except for a small bias in favor of…
