Abstract
This paper presents algorithms for disjunctive and nondisjunctive deco mposition of Boolean functions and Boolean methods for identifying com mon subfunctions from multiple Boolean functions. Ordered binary decis ion diagrams are used to represent and manipulate Boolean functions so that the proposed methods can be implemented concisely. These techniq ues are applied to the synthesis of look-up table based field programm able gate arrays and results are presented.
