Abstract
Simulated annealing (SA) has been successfully used to solve problems in areas such as VLSI design, code design, image processing, etc., for which no tailored approximation algorithm is available. The authors propose the application of SA in the minimisation of switching functions that are expressed by using AND and EXOR gates. A procedure for AND-EXOR minimisation applying SA is described
