Description for Binary Functions and Their Applications
Paperback. In this book representations of binary functions by implicants and implicates are deduced. The results are applied to describe the reliability of technical systems and to classification problems, and to an important class of finite Boolean algebras. Series: Lecture Notes in Economics and Mathematical Systems. Num Pages: 164 pages, 2 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: KJT. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 9. Weight in Grams: 245.
In this book binary functions and their representation by implicants or implicates are described. In particular minimal representations by prime implicants or prime implicates are given. Such representations generalize the minimal representations of the usual Boolean functions. It is shown that implicants (implicates) of discrete functions may be constructed with the help of implicants (implicates) of binary functions. One substantial application is the description of the reliability structure of technical systems, another is the use of binary respectively discrete functions to classify objects which are described by the grades of certain attributes. Finally a class of Boolean algebras of practical ... Read more
