Synchronization of master-slave switched boolean networks with delay

In this paper, we investigate the synchronization problem of master-slave switched Boolean networks (BNs) with delay. The time delay of master BN and time delay of slave BN are assumed to be equivalent, while the switching signals on the logical functions are assumed to be different. By resorting to the equivalent algebraic form of master-slave switched BNs with delay, some necessary and sufficient criteria are derived to guarantee synchronization. Finally, one example is given to illustrate the theoretical results.
