Abstract:The orthogonal disjunctive normal forms (DNFs) of Boolean functions have wide applications in the logical design of discrete devices. The problem of DNF orthogonalization is to get for a given function such a DNF that any two its terms would be orthogonal, i. e. the conjunction of them would be equal identically to zero. An approach to solve the problem using the means of graph theory is suggested. The approach is proposed by representation of the function as perfect DNF.

The orthogonal disjunctive normal forms (DNFs) of Boolean functions have wide applications in the logical design of discrete devices. The problem of DNF orthogonalization is to get for a given function such a DNF that any two its terms would be orthogonal, i. e. the conjunction of them would be equal identically to zero. An approach to solve the problem using the means of graph theory is suggested. The approach is proposed by representation of the function as perfect DNF. Obtaining all the intervals of the Boolean space where the given function has value 1 is supposed, and the intersection graph of those intervals is considered. Two methods to obtain a minimum orthogonal DNF are considered. One of them reduces the problem toward finding out the smallest dominating set in the graph by covering its vertices with their closed neighborhoods, the other - to obtain the maximum independent set by lexicographic enumeration. It is shown how the suggested approach can be extended on incompletely specified Boolean functions.(Read More)
