Implicant — In Boolean logic, an implicant is a covering (sum term or product term) of one or more minterms in a sum of products (or maxterms in a product of sums) of a boolean function. Formally, a product term P in a sum of products is an implicant of the… … Wikipedia
Quine–McCluskey algorithm — The Quine–McCluskey algorithm (or the method of prime implicants) is a method used for minimization of boolean functions which was developed by W.V. Quine and Edward J. McCluskey. It is functionally identical to Karnaugh mapping, but the tabular… … Wikipedia
Petrick's method — In Boolean algebra, Petrick s method (also known as the branch and bound method) is a technique for determining all minimum sum of products solutions from a prime implicant chart. Petrick s method is very tedious for large charts, but it is easy… … Wikipedia
