A new method for the efficient state-assignment of PLA-based sequential machines
Jan Huertas, Jose Maria Quintana · 2003
A method for the state assignment of finite sequential machines is proposed. The algorithm gives solutions with a minimum number of state variables instead of with minimal-cardinality next-state functions. Comparisons between the results given by the proposed method and others previously reported have shown a clear superiority of the present algorithm in terms of silicon area, especially for big machines.>
