Abstract :
In this correspondence it is shown that by applying Gavrilov´s test algorithm to any Boolean function numerically represented by its´´ constrained designation numbers´´, introduced by Ledley, a very suitable program for the automatic determination of the prime implicants and of the prime implicant table can be established.
