Abstract: In this thesis, generalizations and modifications of Boolean models, as introduced in theoretical biology by Stuart Kauffman, are studied. Characteristic quantities of these models are described by discrete dynamical systems, which are investigated analytically as well as numerically. Results are corroborated by simulations. Finally, an application of Boolean modeling within a systems biology project is presented, in which aspects of brain formation during embryonic development are investigated.
