Optical LUTs were designed to perform algebraic operations in residue arithmetic. Also, a technique for factoring LUTs that significantly reduces the hardware and provides a second level of parallelism has been developed. This paper explains the notion of table factorization, illustrates it with an example and discusses the use made of it in solving linear algebraic equations.
