Title:Searching for Invariants using Temporal Resolution
Authors: James Brotherston ; Alexei Lisitsa ; Michael Fisher ; Anatoli Degtyarev
Date:Aug 2002
Publication Title:LPAR'02
Abstract:
In this paper, we show how the clausal temporal resolution technique developed for temporal logic provides an effective method for searching for invariants, and so is suitable for mechanising a wide class of temporal problems. We demonstrate that this scheme of searching for invariants can be also applied to a class of multi-predicate induction problems represented by mutually recursive definitions. Completeness of the approach, examples of the application of the scheme, and an overview of the implementation are described.
