Much attention has been given in recent years to the problem of finding Minimally Unsatisfiable Subformulas (MUSes) of Boolean formulas. In this paper, we present a new view of the...
We introduce a propositional encoding of the recursive path order with status (RPO). RPO is a combination of a multiset path order and a lexicographic path order which considers pe...
The Prover/Delayer game is a combinatorial game that can be used to prove upper and lower bounds on the size of Tree Resolution proofs, and also perfectly characterizes the space ...
It is known that Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSP) can be converted into Boolean Satisfiability problems (SAT); however how to encode a CSP into a SAT problem such that a SAT...
It has been widely observed that there is no “dominant” SAT solver; instead, different solvers perform best on different instances. Rather than following the traditional appr...

As SAT becomes more popular due to its ability to handle large real-world problems, progress in efficiency appears to have slowed down over the past few years. On the other hand, w...
— Recently, there is a renewed interest in Automatic Test Pattern Generation (ATPG) based on Boolean Satisfiability (SAT). This results from the availability of very powerful SA...
Due to the widespread demands for efficient SAT solvers in Electronic Design Automation applications, methods to boost the performance of the SAT solver are highly desired. We pr...
Handling redundancy in propositional reasoning and search is an active path of theoretical research. For instance, the complexity of some redundancy-related problems for CNF formu...
Many formal verification tools today are based on Boolean proof techniques. The two most powerful approaches in this context are Binary Decision Diagrams (BDDs) and methods based ...
