Boolean Algebra Consensus Law



  boolean algebra consensus law: Engineering Digital Design Richard F. Tinder, 2000-01-18 Engineering Digital Design, Second Edition provides the most extensive coverage of any available textbook in digital logic and design. The new REVISED Second Edition published in September of 2002 provides 5 productivity tools free on the accompanying CD ROM. This software is also included on the Instructor's Manual CD ROM and complete instructions accompany each software program.In the REVISED Second Edition modern notation combines with state-of-the-art treatment of the most important subjects in digital design to provide the student with the background needed to enter industry or graduate study at a competitive level. Combinatorial logic design and synchronous and asynchronous sequential machine design methods are given equal weight, and new ideas and design approaches are explored. The productivity tools provided on the accompanying CD are outlined below:[1] EXL-Sim2002 logic simulator: EXL-Sim2002 is a full-featured, interactive, schematic-capture and simulation program that is ideally suited for use with the text at either the entry or advanced-level of logic design. Its many features include drag-and-drop capability, rubber banding, mixed logic and positive logic simulations, macro generation, individual and global (or randomized) delay assignments, connection features that eliminate the need for wire connections, schematic page sizing and zooming, waveform zooming and scrolling, a variety of printout capabilities, and a host of other useful features. [2] BOOZER logic minimizer: BOOZER is a software minimization tool that is recommended for use with the text. It accepts entered variable (EV) or canonical (1's and 0's) data from K-maps or truth tables, with or without don't cares, and returns an optimal or near optimal single or multi-output solution. It can handle up to 12 functions Boolean functions and as many inputs when used on modern computers. [3] ESPRESSO II logic minimizer: ESPRESSO II is another software minimization tool widely used in schools and industry. It supports advanced heuristic algorithms for minimization of two-level, multi-output Boolean functions but does not accept entered variables. It is also readily available from the University of California, Berkeley, 1986 VLSI Tools Distribution. [4] ADAM design software: ADAM (for Automated Design of Asynchronous Machines) is a very powerful productivity tool that permits the automated design of very complex asynchronous state machines, all free of timing defects. The input files are state tables for the desired state machines. The output files are given in the Berkeley format appropriate for directly programming PLAs. ADAM also allows the designer to design synchronous state machines, timing-defect-free. The options include the lumped path delay (LPD) model or NESTED CELL model for asynchronous FSM designs, and the use of D FLIP-FLOPs for synchronous FSM designs. The background for the use of ADAM is covered in Chapters 11, 14 and 16 of the REVISED 2nd Edition.[5] A-OPS design software: A-OPS (for Asynchronous One-hot Programmable Sequencers) is another very powerful productivity tool that permits the design of asynchronous and synchronous state machines by using a programmable sequencer kernel. This software generates a PLA or PAL output file (in Berkeley format) or the VHDL code for the automated timing-defect-free designs of the following: (a) Any 1-Hot programmable sequencer up to 10 states. (b) The 1-Hot design of multiple asynchronous or synchronous state machines driven by either PLDs or RAM. The input file is that of a state table for the desired state machine. This software can be used to design systems with the capability of instantly switching between several radically different controllers on a time-shared basis. The background for the use of A-OPS is covered in Chapters 13, 14 and 16 of the REVISED 2nd Edition.
  boolean algebra consensus law: Introduction to Discrete Mathematics via Logic and Proof Calvin Jongsma, 2019-11-08 This textbook introduces discrete mathematics by emphasizing the importance of reading and writing proofs. Because it begins by carefully establishing a familiarity with mathematical logic and proof, this approach suits not only a discrete mathematics course, but can also function as a transition to proof. Its unique, deductive perspective on mathematical logic provides students with the tools to more deeply understand mathematical methodology—an approach that the author has successfully classroom tested for decades. Chapters are helpfully organized so that, as they escalate in complexity, their underlying connections are easily identifiable. Mathematical logic and proofs are first introduced before moving onto more complex topics in discrete mathematics. Some of these topics include: Mathematical and structural induction Set theory Combinatorics Functions, relations, and ordered sets Boolean algebra and Boolean functions Graph theory Introduction to Discrete Mathematics via Logic and Proof will suit intermediate undergraduates majoring in mathematics, computer science, engineering, and related subjects with no formal prerequisites beyond a background in secondary mathematics.
  boolean algebra consensus law: Asynchronous Sequential Machine Design and Analysis Richard Tinder, 2022-06-01 Asynchronous Sequential Machine Design and Analysis provides a lucid, in-depth treatment of asynchronous state machine design and analysis presented in two parts: Part I on the background fundamentals related to asynchronous sequential logic circuits generally, and Part II on self-timed systems, high-performance asynchronous programmable sequencers, and arbiters. Part I provides a detailed review of the background fundamentals for the design and analysis of asynchronous finite state machines (FSMs). Included are the basic models, use of fully documented state diagrams, and the design and characteristics of basic memory cells and Muller C-elements. Simple FSMs using C-elements illustrate the design process. The detection and elimination of timing defects in asynchronous FSMs are covered in detail. This is followed by the array algebraic approach to the design of single-transition-time machines and use of CAD software for that purpose, one-hot asynchronous FSMs, and pulse mode FSMs. Part I concludes with the analysis procedures for asynchronous state machines. Part II is concerned mainly with self-timed systems, programmable sequencers, and arbiters. It begins with a detailed treatment of externally asynchronous/internally clocked (or pausable) systems that are delay-insensitive and metastability-hardened. This is followed by defect-free cascadable asynchronous sequencers, and defect-free one-hot asynchronous programmable sequencers--their characteristics, design, and applications. Part II concludes with arbiter modules of various types, those with and without metastability protection, together with applications. Presented in the appendices are brief reviews covering mixed-logic gate symbology, Boolean algebra, and entered-variable K-map minimization. End-of-chapter problems and a glossary of terms, expressions, and abbreviations contribute to the reader's learning experience. Five productivity tools are made available specifically for use with this text and briefly discussed in the Preface.

  boolean algebra consensus law: Introduction to Discrete Mathematics Steven C. Althoen, Robert J. Bumcrot, 1988 This text aims to unify and inter-relate mathematical topics and explain how to design, run and analyse better algorithms. Many of the less common algorithms are included i.e. planarity, graph colouring, minimization of machine states. These are actually run so that students can see the importance of working through each step of an algorithm by hand. Topics are chosen for their contribution to the students ability to reason abstractly. For example, Matrices introduces the topic from the study of arrays, Disjunctive Forms does not rely on the typical Karnaugh Maps and Quine-McClusky Algorithm to find the minimal forms of any given proposition and Planarity presents a complete planarity algorithm allowing the student to master a tough, interesting procedure. Logic and proof are explained through example and technicalities and limitations of realcomputer languages are avoided. Topics are set in some historical framework whenever possible, within the overall studies from which they are derived.

  boolean algebra consensus law: FSM-based Digital Design using Verilog HDL Peter Minns, Ian Elliott, 2008-04-30 As digital circuit elements decrease in physical size, resulting in increasingly complex systems, a basic logic model that can be used in the control and design of a range of semiconductor devices is vital. Finite State Machines (FSM) have numerous advantages; they can be applied to many areas (including motor control, and signal and serial data identification to name a few) and they use less logic than their alternatives, leading to the development of faster digital hardware systems. This clear and logical book presents a range of novel techniques for the rapid and reliable design of digital systems using FSMs, detailing exactly how and where they can be implemented. With a practical approach, it covers synchronous and asynchronous FSMs in the design of both simple and complex systems, and Petri-Net design techniques for sequential/parallel control systems. Chapters on Hardware Description Language cover the widely-used and powerful Verilog HDL in sufficient detail to facilitate the description and verification of FSMs, and FSM based systems, at both the gate and behavioural levels. Throughout, the text incorporates many real-world examples that demonstrate designs such as data acquisition, a memory tester, and passive serial data monitoring and detection, among others. A useful accompanying CD offers working Verilog software tools for the capture and simulation of design solutions. With a linear programmed learning format, this book works as a concise guide for the practising digital designer. This book will also be of importance to senior students and postgraduates of electronic engineering, who require design skills for the embedded systems market.

I personally find this book very useful and only one of its kind in the market because this book gives complete analysis of the chapterwise questions based on the previous years’ examination. Moreover, all solutions are fully explained, with a reference to the concerned book given after each solution. It definitely helps in the elimination of redundant topics which are not important from examination point of view. So, the students will be able to reduce the volume of text matter to be studied. Besides, solutions are presented in lucid and understandable language for an average student.” —Dr. T. Venugopal, Associate Professor, Department of CSE, JNTUH, Jagtial “Overall, I think this book represents an extremely valuable and unique contribution to the competitive field because it captures a wealth of GATE/PGECET examination’s preparation experience in a compact and reusable form. This book is certainly one that I shall turn into a regular practice for all entrance examinations’ preparation guides. This book will change the way of preparation for all competitive examinations.” —Professor L.V.N. Prasad, CEO, Vardhaman College of Engineering, Hyderabad “I began to wish that someone would compile all the important abstracting information into one reference, as the need for a single reference book for aspirants had become even more apparent. I have been thinking about this project for several years, as I have conducted many workshops and training programs. This book is full of terms, phrases, examples and other key information as well as guidelines that will be helpful not only for the students or the young engineers but also for the instructors.” —Professor R. Muraliprasad, Professional Trainer, GATE/IES/PSU, Hyderabad The book, which will prove to be an epitome of learning the concepts of CS and IT for GATE/PGECET examination, is purely intended for the aspirants of GATE and PGECET examinations. It should also be of considerable utility and worth to the aspirants of UGC-NET as well as to those who wish to pursue career in public sector units like ONGC, NTPC, ISRO, BHEL, BARC, DRDO, DVC, Power-grid, IOCL and many more. In addition, the book is also of immense use for the placement coordinators of GATE/PGECET.
