R70-15 Realization of Sequential Machines with Threshold Elements

This paper deals with the realization of the combinatorial logic network of sequential machines with threshold logic elements, with a view to one- level realization. The state assignment problem is already a difficult one, and here it is further complicated by the restriction that the logical gates to be used are all threshold logic elements. This problem is quite important and is worthy of intensive study because, although threshold logic element as a general gate is well known, its value is not fully appreciated unless its applicability in various situations is demonstrated.
