Learning outcomes
The class presents problems, methods and systems in automated reasoning. The treatment combines theoretical foundations with algorithmic and practical issues, emphasizing mechanization throughout. The student learns how to design, apply, and evaluate methods and systems for automated reasoning, with attention to applications in analysis, verification, synthesis of systems, and artificial intelligence.
Program
Foundations of automated reasoning: theorem proving and model building. Inference systems, such as: instance-based (e.g., hyper-linking), ordering-based (e.g., resolution), and subgoal-reduction based (e.g., model elimination). Search plans. Algorithmic reasoning in specific fields, such as: decision procedures for satisfiability modulo theories (SMT); constraint-based reasoning. Design and use of general-purpose or special-purpose reasoners.

Examination Methods
The grade is given by 30% C1 + 30% C2 + 40% P, where C1 is the midterm exam, C2 is the final exam and P is a project. The grade thus generated is registered at the first exam session in February.
For all other sessions, the grade is given by 100% E, where E is a written test, hard enough to match the difficulty of C1 + C2 + P.
Registration: all grades will be registered.
Withdrawal: Students may withdraw by informing the instructor.
Cheating: All tests and projects are individual work. Cheating is strictly forbidden and will determine lowering of grades.
