Espresso Heuristic Logic Minimizer

Espresso Heuristic Logic Minimizer

The Espresso logic minimizer is a computer program using heuristic and specific algorithms for efficiently reducing the complexity of digital electronic gate circuits. Espresso was developed at IBM by Robert Brayton. Rudell later published the variant Espresso-MV in 1986 under the title "Multiple-Valued Logic Minimization for PLA Synthesis". Espresso has inspired many derivatives.

Famous quotes containing the word logic:

    The logic of worldly success rests on a fallacy: the strange error that our perfection depends on the thoughts and opinions and applause of other men! A weird life it is, indeed, to be living always in somebody else’s imagination, as if that were the only place in which one could at last become real!
    Thomas Merton (1915–1968)
