Abstract
This paper proposes a method for compiling all the normal parameter reductions of a soft set into a conjunction of disjunctive normal form, which is generated by parameter boolean atomic formulas. A subset of parameter set is a normal parameter reduction if and only if the characteristic function of its complementary set is a model of this proposition. Three rules for simplifying this job are developed and combined.
