Abstract :
A classical problem of Boolean theory is to derive a disjointed Sum of Products. This work introduces a novel approach for converting Sum of Products into disjointed Sum of Products which is based on a novel, generally valid, combining technique
of 'orthogonalizing difference-building '. Postulates and rules for this linking technique
are defined which have to be considered getting correct results. The benefit of the novel
approach is that the result contains fewer number of product terms which has significant
advantages for further calculations as the Boolean Differential Calculus.
