The Efficiency of Resolution and Davis--Putnam Procedures
We consider several problems related to the use of resolution-based methods for determining whether a given boolean formula in conjunctive normal form is satisfiable. First, build...

MaxSolver: An efficient exact algorithm for (weighted) maximum satisfiability
Maximum Boolean satisfiability (max-SAT) is the optimization counterpart of Boolean satisfiability (SAT), in which a variable assignment is sought to satisfy the maximum number of...

On the Relation between SAT and BDDs for Equivalence Checking
State-of-the-art verification tools are based on efficient operations on Boolean formulas. Traditional manipulation techniques are based on Binary Decision Diagrams (BDDs) and SAT...
