Abstract :
Chakravarty presents a characterization of BDD\´s in terms of the complexity of some computational problems, ibid., vol. 42, p. 129-137, Feb. 1993. In these comments, some incorrectly stated restrictions on the "number of repeated variables" are corrected and results on the translation problem (to include EXOR and NEXOR gates) are generalized.<>
