            Abstract : 
This tutorial places the developments and potential of multiple-valued signals and logic in the relevant context of binary and two-valued signals. It covers: the role of multivalued logic (MVL) in the binary world; multivalued representation; binary-related radices; multivalued functions; storage techniques in MVL; and implementation issues. An overview of applications is included.<>
