Abstract: Abstract Random boolean networks (RBN) are well known dynamical systems, whose properties have been extensively studied in the case where each node has the same number of incoming connections, coming from other nodes chosen at random with uniform probability, and the updating is synchronous. In the past, the comparison with experimental results has been limited to some well-known tests; we review here some recent results that demonstrate that the availability of gene expression data now allows further testing of these models. Moreover, in this paper we summarize some recent results and present some novel data concerning the dynamics of these networks in the case where either the network has a scale-free topology or the updating takes place asynchronously.
