Algorithms for extracting subsystems from a multilevel representation of a system of Boolean functions for joint minimization by P. N. Bibilo, N. A. Kirienko, V. I. Romanov

“…After obtaining minimized descriptions of circuits, specified as a set of interconnected Shannon expansion formulas that correspond to BDD, or as two-operand logical equations corresponding to Boolean networks, synthesis of logic circuits is carried out in the design library of custom digital CMOS ASIC (Application-Specific Integrated Circuits made using complementary metal oxide semiconductor technology). In Boolean networks, node functions can be the logical operations “conjunction” or “disjunction” over literals of Boolean variables. …”
