9th International Conference On Automated Deduction

This volume contains the papers presented at the Ninth International Conference on Automated Deduction (CADE-9) held May 23-26 at Argonne National Laboratory, Argonne, Illinois. The conference commemorates the twenty-fifth anniversary of the discovery of the resolution principle, which took place during the summer of 1963. The CADE conferences are a forum for reporting on research on all aspects of automated deduction, including theorem proving, logic programming, unification, deductive databases, term rewriting, ATP for non-standard logics, and program verification. All papers submitted to the conference were refereed by at least two referees, and the program committee accepted the 52 that appear here. Also included in this volume are abstracts of 21 implementations of automated deduction systems.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 24th International Conference on Automated Deduction, CADE-24, held in Lake Placid, NY, USA, in June 2013. The 31 revised full papers presented together with 2 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 71 initial submissions. CADE is the major forum for the presentation of research in all aspects of automated deduction, ranging from theoretical and methodological issues to the presentation of new theorem provers, solvers and systems.

This volume contains the proceedings of the 20th International Conference on Automated Deduction (CADE-20). It was held July 22–27, 2005 in Tallinn, Estonia...

This volume contains the papers presented at the 10th International Conference on Automated Deduction (CADE-10). CADE is the major forum at which research on all aspects of automated deduction is presented. Although automated deduction research is also presented at more general artificial intelligence conferences, the CADE conferences have no peer in the concentration and quality of their contributions to this topic. The papers included range from theory to implementation and experimentation, from propositional to higher-order calculi and nonclassical logics; they refine and use a wealth of methods including resolution, paramodulation, rewriting, completion, unification and induction; and they work with a variety of applications including program verification, logic programming, deductive databases, and theorem proving in many domains. The volume also contains abstracts of 20 implementations of automated deduction systems. The authors of about half the papers are from the United States, many are from Western Europe, and many too are from the rest of the world. The proceedings of the 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th CADE conferences are published as Volumes 87, 138, 170, 230, 310 in the series Lecture Notes in Computer Science.

This volume contains the reviewed papers presented at the 12th International Conference on Automated Deduction (CADE-12) held at Nancy, France in June/July 1994. The 67 papers presented were selected from 177 submissions and document many of the most important research results in automated deduction since CADE-11 was held in June 1992. The volume is organized in chapters on heuristics, resolution systems, induction, controlling resolutions, ATP problems, unification, LP applications, special-purpose provers, rewrite rule termination, ATP efficiency, AC unification, higher-order theorem proving, natural systems, problem sets, and system descriptions.
