Abstract. CVC3, a joint project of NYU and U Iowa, is the new and latest version of the Cooperating Validity Checker. CVC3 extends and builds on the functionality of its predecesso...
Many popular stream ciphers apply a filter/combiner to the state of one or several LFSRs. Algebraic attacks on such ciphers [10, 11] are possible, if there is a multivariate relat...
BDDs (binary decision diagrams) are a very succesful tool for handling boolean functions, but one which has not yet attracted the attention of many automated deduction specialists....

Algebraic attacks on stream ciphers [14] recover the key by solving an overdefined system of multivariate equations. Such attacks can break several interesting cases of LFSR-based ...
