Abstract
An algorithm is presented that computes exact or approximate observability don´t care (ODC) sets for a multiple-level combinatorial network. The proposed algorithms are efficient because they use only local information. A method for deriving the equivalence classes of a Boolean relation from the ODC sets is then proposed. Experimental results on computing ODC sets are reported.<>
