Trie Based Subsumption and Improving the pi-Trie Algorithm

10 pagesPublished: May 16, 2012

Abstract

An algorithm that stores the prime implicates of a logical formula in a trie was developed in [Matusiewicz et.al. 2009]. In this paper, an improved version of that pi-trie algorithm is presented. It achieves its speedup primarily by significantly decreasing subsumption testing. Preliminary experiments indicate the new algorithm to be substantially faster and the trie based subsumption tests to be considerably more efficient than the clause by clause approach originally employed.

Keyphrases: prime implicates, subsumption, Tries
