The dynamics of Kauffman networks with connectivity two under stochastic asynchronous update — •Florian Greil and Barbara Drossel — Institut für Festkörperphysik, Technische Universität Darmstadt

We investigate critical random boolean networks, which are usually implemented with synchronous update. Biologically, this is highly improbable. For this reason, we study the influence of a stochastic updating scheme. We find that the number of attractors grows as a power law with the system size, while the size of the attractors increases exponentially. These results are compared with other updating schemes.
