Boolean networks are widely used in physics, biology, social science, and computer science. In this talk, I will introduce the basics of Boolean networks and give an overview of Biological applications. Then, I will discuss information transfer in Boolean networks and discuss optimal design principles. The latter part of the talk is based on joint work with Fumito Mori (Kyushu Univ).
