Abstract

This talk will give a brief overview of the Satisfiability Modulo Theories (SMT) approach to automated reasoning and its applications, including potentially less familiar applications at Intel. Next we will introduce the Decision Procedure Toolkit (DPT), a new SMT solver developed at Intel and available under an open source license. We will discuss the current state of DPT, our plans for the future, and the opportunities it presents.
