Automated Decision Procedures
Winter 2013


Description:

There has been significant progress in automated decision procedures during the last decade. Satisfiability-Modula-Theories (SMT)-solvers, which combine multiple decision procedures, have been successfully used in solving problems in a variety of domains including program analysis, testing, software verification, formal methods, computer security, program synthesis, and electronic design automation. In this seminar, we will discuss the basic algorithms used in modern SMT-solvers.

Each week, we will discuss one of the chapters from the following book:
