Based on the features of coincidence operation, a canonical OR coincidence (COC) expansion of logical functions in the OR-coincidence algebraic system is proposed, and its mapping expression (dj-map) is given. Then two new operations are introduced a... Read More about Expansion of logical function in the OR-coincidence system and the transform between it and maxterm expansion..
