SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR OPTIMIZING BOOLEAN LOGIC USING ORGANICALLY-GROWN KARNAUGH MAPS

Systems and methods for optimizing Boolean logic are provided. The systems generate a one-dimensional array having a plurality of values corresponding to a plurality of indices, and determine a first location of a Karnaugh map in a first dimension thereof. The first location is determined using a first value of the one-dimensional array corresponding to a first index of the one-dimensional array. The systems also determine a second location of the Karnaugh map in a second dimension thereof. The second location is determined using a second value of the one-dimensional array corresponding to a second index of the one-dimensional array. The systems evaluate a target location within the Karnaugh map corresponding to the first and second indices in the first and second dimensions of the Karnaugh map, respectively, and search for at least one of a simplified minterm and a simplified implicant having the target location using the one-dimensional array.
