ABSTRACT:
The invention is directed to apparatus, methods, systems and computer programs which permit a simplification or reduction of the description of a complex digital circuit. This is accomplished by using a completely new system of propositional logic (13B), representing the logic of a logical circuit to be designed as points and vectors in a vector space, simplifying the logic so represented to a simpler form using vector transformations, and designing the circuit using the simpler form. The invention is also directed to apparatus, methods, systems and devices which will implement the vector logic system in optical forms, including free-space optical methods, flat-optical methods, colorimetric methods, and methods using a polarization-based AND-gate.
