I just answered a question about canonical forms of logical formulas. IMHO the asker referred to normal forms, for which there are links: Conjunctive Normal Form (the one above) Disjunctive Normal Form (yours) However, the poster deleted his thread, but hopefully this can be of some use to somebody.

Just as a note, in boolean algebra/digital logic, the conjunctive normal form is also called a "product of sums" since "and" and "or" are typically written as, well, products and sums.

Similarly the disjunctive nf is sometimes called "sum of products".
