Well, I'm signed up to do solve this for logic expressions as part
of the SQLMage. It's written up at
http://www.algebraist.com/I started it as part of Ralph Johnson's great CS497 course at UIUC,
but I never finished the logic part of it during the term. The
ratioanle for the SQLMage is given in both places, but the one for
CS497 is far better documented and referenced (assuming the links
haven't broken). I a great new algorithm for the logic simplification
to use which I'm dying to implement. Sadly, I've been busy making
sure there's money coming in so we can eat come April. [*sigh*
Necessities are such a pain!]
I also have references from my literature and Web search for Smalltalk
and other software to do this. If there's enough demand, I'll
write a page and put it up on my site. Otherwise, I'm happy
to e-mail you what I've got. Please be patient: I will get it to
you eventually.
If anyone is going to Smalltalk Solutions 2002, I'd love to talk
about this symbolic manipulation subject, too.
