A procedure for multi-level Reed-Muller minimization has been developed which introduces a ReedMuller factored form, and uses algebraic algorithms for factorization, decomposition, resubstitution, collapsing, and extraction of common cubes and subexpressions. The procedure has been used to design some arithmetic circuits using a gate library containing a wide range of gates, and the resulting circuits were compared with some designed using M i d . The circuits designed using the Reed-Muller system were over 20 percent smaller and between 25 and 50 percent faster.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
