Abstract :
The major problem in output phase optimization for PLA layout minimization is the reduction of the time for generating and minimizing the so-called double-phase characteristic function. A novel algorithm based on the concept of common complement set and separation theorem is proposed to handle this problem. Experimental results show that this method is quite efficient
