Workshop Report
Workshop @ SAT 2013
Helsinki, Finland
Overview
Quantified Boolean formulas (QBF) are an extension of propositional logic
which allows for explicit quantification over propositional variables. The
decision problem of QBF is PSPACE-complete compared to NP-completeness of the
decision problem of propositional logic (SAT).
Many problems from application domains such as model checking, formal
verification or synthesis are PSPACE-complete, and hence could be encoded in
QBF. Considerable progress has been made in QBF solving throughout the past
years. However, in contrast to SAT, QBF is not widely applied to practical
problems in industrial settings. For example, the extraction and validation of
models of (un)satisfiability of QBFs and has turned out to be challenging.
The goal of the International Workshop on Quantified Boolean Formulas (QBF
Workshop) is to bring together researchers working on theoretical and
practical aspects of QBF solving. The aim of this workshop is to provide
an interactive platform for discussing recent advancements and alternative
approaches for solving QSAT. In addition to that, it addresses
(potential) users of QBF in order to reflect on the state-of-the-art and to
consolidate on immediate and long-term research challenges.
