Research on multiple-valued logic at the Naval Postgraduate School
Abstract
The Navy's need for faster, smaller computers has inspired research on the use of more than two levels of logic in computer circuits. This paper focusses on work at NPS in multiple-valued logic. It discusses the development of multiple-valued programmable logic arrays (MVL-PLA), as well as computer-aided tools for MVL-PLA's.

Analysis of input and output configurations for use in four-valued programmable logic arrays
Kerkhoff, Hans G.; Butler, Jon T. (1987-07);As in binary, a multiple-valued programmable logic array (PLA) realises a sum-of-products, expression specified by the user. However, in multiple-valued logic, there are many more operations than in binary, and an important ... -
On the average path length in decision diagrams of multiple-valued functions
Sasao, T.; Butler, Jon T. (2003-05);We consider the path length in decision diagrams for multiple-valued functions. This is an important measure of a decision diagram, since this models the time needed to evaluate the function. We consider the path length ... -
HAMLET - An expression compiler/optimizer for the implementation of heuristics to minimize multiple-valued programmable logic arrays
Yurchak, John M.; Butler, Jon T. (1990-05);HAMLET is a CAD tool that translates a user specification of a multiple-valued expression into a layout of a multiple-valued programmable logic array (MVL-PLA) which realizes that expression. It is modular to accommodate ...
