Cathedral is decentralized formal verification: compute whose answers can be checked deterministically and rewarded through an open miner market. The substrate is Boolean satisfiability, the canonical ...

Abstract: Dynamical systems can offer a novel non-Boolean approach to computing. Specifically, the natural minimization of energy in the system is a valuable property for minimizing the objective ...

Mathematicians have long been fascinated by objects that exhibit exceptionally nice combinatorial properties. However, it is often difficult to determine whether objects satisfying a given ...

go-sat is a pure Go library for solving Boolean satisfiability problems (SAT). Solving SAT problems is at the core of a number of more difficult higher level problems. From hardware/software ...

A solution to P vs NP could unlock countless computational problems—or keep them forever out of reach. 1. On Monday, July 19, 2021, in the middle of another strange pandemic summer, a leading computer ...

An attempt at tackling the intractable Collatz conjecture is a “noble failure” demonstrating the promise of automated reasoning techniques. The computer scientist Marijn Heule is always on the lookout ...

One point to note is that humans have been in the loop for a while now so it is more the degree of their involvement that has changed over the years. As noted back in 1969 in Semi-Automated ...

When editor-in-chief Moshe Vardi asked me to write this piece for Communications, my first reaction was the article could be written in two words: Nevertheless, the computer science landscape has ...

Abstract: Recent advances in Boolean satisfiability have made it an attractive engine for solving many digital VLSI design problems such as verification, model checking, optimization and test ...
