biologically meaningful. Another difference in comparison with the Boolean model
in [

] is that the Boolean models in this chapter factor in the bacterial growth rate
.
The Boolean modeling carried out here is strictly deterministic in nature and uses
synchronous updates for all variables. It would be interesting to examine what impact
stochasticity and asynchronous update schedules may have on the model outcomes.
