The primary advantage of a multivalued system is the ability to encode more information per variable than a binary system is capable of doing. Hence, less area is used for interconnections since each interconnection carries more information. This chapter generalizes the design paradigms introduced in previous chapters toward multivalued logic systems. These generalizations are made in the following directions: Technique of computing the sum-of-products, Reed-Muller, and arithmetic representations, Event-driven analysis based on logic differential operations, Word-level representation of logic functions, Linearization of word-level expressions, and Linear decision diagrams.
