This network is modeled as a Boolean equation and minimized using modified versions of logic synthesis techniques. ...
After minimization, the more efficient version of the program's original control flow is re-expressed in predicated code. ...

A Heuristic Approach to Two Level Boolean Minimization Derived from Karnaugh Mapping
[article]
2020
arXiv
pre-print
The following paper presents a heuristic method by which sum-of-product Boolean expressions can be simplified with a specific focus on the removal of redundant and selective prime implicants. ...
Existing methods, such as the Karnaugh map and the Quine-McCluskey method [1, 2], fail to scale since they increase exponentially in complexity as the quantity of literals increases, doing as such to ensure ...
The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate a new heuristic and expandable approach that accomplishes two level Boolean simplification in a more efficient manner than current methods. 1 Given ĀCD + ĀBC ...

Optimal Boolean Function Simplification through K-Map using Object-Oriented Algorithm
2011
International Journal of Computer Applications
Why is the minimization of the Boolean expression needed? By simplifying the logic function, we can reduce the original number of digital components (gates) required to implement digital circuits. ...
Later Quine and McCluskey reported tabular algorithmic techniques for the optimal Boolean function minimization. ...
Normally a Boolean expression can be given using two forms:

Program decision logic optimization using predication and control speculation
2001
Proceedings of the IEEE
This abstraction is then applied to optimize the program's control component, transforming it into a form more amenable to instruction level parallel (ILP) execution. ...
The mainstream arrival of predication, a means other than branching of selecting instructions for execution, has required compiler architects to reformulate fundamental analyses and transformations. ...

Synthesis of spp three-level logic networks using affine spaces
2003
IEEE Transactions on Computer-Aided Design of Integrated Circuits and Systems
Recently defined, three-level logic sum of pseudoproducts (SPP) forms are EXOR-AND-OR networks representing Boolean functions, and are much shorter than standard two-level sum of products (SOP) expressions ...
In order to validate our approach, the results are compared with those obtained for the major two-and three-level forms using standard metrics. ...

If My > Mp and Mg is odd, then we get two types of
tails in S, one with size h(Mz/2) and other with size
h(M2/2)—1. Each type can have no more than Mj distinct tails. So p< 2Mp. ...
Hence, the rest of the 512 — 210 = 302 combinations represent ‘‘don’t care”’ con- ditions and these are selectively used to obtain the minimal sum-of-products expression for S; the minimal expression is ...
