Disjunctive and conjunctive decompositions of incompletely defined Boolean functions in a Binary Decision Diagram by P. N. Bibilo

“…The problems of minimizing the number of cofactors (subfunctions) of the Shannon expansions located at the same level of the BDD, representing a system of incompletely defined (partial) Boolean functions, are considered. To reduce the number of functions, it is proposed to find a subset of such functions that can be expressed as algebraic decompositions of disjunctions or conjunctions of other predefined partial functions, while the directed graph of function occurrences in decompositions should not contain contours.Methods. …”
