An efficient algorithm for computing attractors of synchronous and asynchronous Boolean networks.

Biological networks, such as genetic regulatory networks, often contain positive and negative feedback loops that settle down to dynamically stable patterns. Identifying these patterns, the so-called attractors, can provide important insights for biologists to understand the molecular mechanisms und...
