Realization of Boolean Control Networks.

This chapter considers the realization of a Boolean control network. As with a dynamic control system, we consider the controllable and observable normal forms first. Based on this, the Kalman decomposed form of a Boolean control network is constructed. Finally, the minimum realization problem is discussed. Coordinate transformations and regular subspaces are fundamental tools in these investigations. This chapter is based on Cheng et al. (Automatica 46(1):62–69, 2010). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
