NAME

       fmi    - FSM state miminization

SYNOPSIS

       fmi [-V] input_file  output_file

DESCRIPTION

       Made  to run on FSM descriptions, fmi supports the same subset of VHDL as syf (for further
       informations about this subset see SYF(1) and FSM(5)).  fmi uses a Reduced Ordered  Binary
       Decision  Diagrams  representation  and identifies equivalent states.  After this step, it
       drives a new FSM where all equivalent states are replaced by a single state.
       As a restriction fmi doesn't handle don't cares (as this much more difficult).

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       MBK_WORK_LIB gives the path of the FSM description.  The  default  value  is  the  current
              directory.

       MBK_CATA_LIB  gives  some auxiliary pathes for the FSM descriptions.  The default value is
              the current directory.

OPTIONS

       -V Sets verbose mode on. Each step of  the  minimization  is  displayed  on  the  standard
       output.

EXAMPLE

            fmi digi digi_min
