Declarative specifications exhibit a variety of problems, such as inadvertently overconstrained axioms and underconstrained conjectures, that are hard to diagnose with model checki...

This paper presents Kato, a tool that implements a novel class of optimizations that are inspired by program slicing for imperative languages but are applicable to analyzable decl...
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...
Much research in the area of constraint processing has recently been focused on extracting small unsatisfiable "cores" from unsatisfiable constraint systems with the goal...
We tackle the problem of finding a smallest-cardinality MUS (SMUS) of a given formula. The SMUS provides a succinct explanation of infeasibility and is valuable for applications th...
