Monotone term decision lists

TLDR
A new representation class of Boolean functions, monotone term decision lists, is introduced which combines compact representation size with tractability of essential operations and is an attractive alternative to traditional universal representation classes such as DNF formulas or decision trees.

Graph-Based Algorithms for Boolean Function Manipulation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a data structure for representing Boolean functions and an associated set of manipulation algorithms, which have time complexity proportional to the sizes of the graphs being operated on, and hence are quite efficient as long as the graphs do not grow too large.
