Software

  • lp2diff, a translator mapping logic programs to SMT theories implemented by Tomi Janhunen.
  • Smodels, a system for rule-based constraint programming based on logic programs with the stable model semantics implemented in C++.
  • GnT, an implementation of disjunctive stable models on top of Smodels. Note that this can compute also, e.g., minimal models of sets of clauses.
  • BCSat - an implementation of a tableau method for Boolean circuit satisfiability checking done by Tommi Junttila.
  • Test case generation for minimal model and other propositional reasoners.
  • An Eclipse Prolog implementation of a tableau-based method for automating circumscriptive reasoning (TABLEAUX'96, ECAI'96).
