Waste Reduction: Experiments in Sharing Clauses between Runs of a Portfolio of Strategies (Experimental Paper)

10 pagesPublished: May 26, 2024

Abstract

Most high-end automated theorem provers for first order logic (FOL) split available time between short runs of a large portfolio of search strategies. These runs are typically independent and can be parallelized to exploit all the available processor cores. We explore several avenues of re-using clauses generated by earlier runs and present experimental results of their usefulness or lack thereof.

Keyphrases: automated theorem proving, Portfolio of Strategies, reuse, Saturation-based proving
