About this Item

New York, American Telephone and Telegraph Company, 1949. 8vo. Volume XXVIII, 1949, No. 1 of "The Bell System Technical Journal". In the original printed blue wrappers. Wear and tears to spine. Inner front hinge loosening. Previous owner's name to front wrapper. Internally fine and clean. Pp. 59-98 [Entire issue: 163 pp]. First publication of Shannon's paper on how a Boolean function can be represented by the sum of two sub-functions of the original. The function was later named Shannon's Expansion or the Shannon Decomposition. "The area of switching circuits design and optimization was a focus of considerable attention. Boolean algebra provided the basic mathematical foundation for switching circuit design. Shannon provided a basis for the The Synthesis of Two-Terminal Switching Circuits in 1949". (Ashar, Sequential logic synthesis, 1992, p. 1).Claude Shannon is widely regarded as being the father of information theory and cryptography. Other papers contained in the present issue:1.
