An operation device having the element number and delay time of the
operation circuitry reduced is realized by a purely logical approach. An
operation method based on encoding is concretely and efficiently
logic-designed to provide an encoding operation device operators of an
operation system are extended if required to treat as logic functions
with the base number r. When r=2, using a generating function as a new
representation of a mapping, a new operation system is logic-designed
under encoding conditions and logic expression simplifying conditions, or
the new operation system is logic-designed by matching the topologies of
input/output relation of the operators of the original operation system
and the new operation system. The operation device satisfying the
encoding conditions and logic expression simplifying conditions achieves
speeding up and low power consumption.
