Abstract :
In this paper we present an improved algorithm for efficient minimization of the number of vectors in lists representing Boolean functions using an ordered data structure OTVL and simulated annealing algorithm to permit with a certain probability performing of some special block changes. New algorithm requires fewer comparisons to rind a new block building possibility than the XBOOLE algorithm.
