Proofs in Satisfiability Testing

The satisfiability problem (SAT) is one of the most prominent problems in theoretical computer science and has many applications in software verification, planning, bioinformatics or scheduling. Satisfiability solvers have become more complex in recent years due to inprocessing techniques and parallel computing. This raises the question whether the results of these solvers can be trusted. To gain confidence in the correctness of the results, SAT solvers can emit unsatisfiability proofs that can be validated using a checker.

The seminar will cover construction of proofs, verification of proofs, application of proofs, and considers the formal verification of checker systems.

The initial meeting is on 20.04.2015.

Duties of the Participants

The students are expected to participate in the seminar, write a short report of the assigned topic, and give a presentation in the end of the summer term. The presentation should have a length of 30 minutes, followed by a 15 minutes discussion.

German students can give the presentation also in German.
