Due to undecidability and complexity of first-order logic, SMT solvers may not terminate on some problems or require a very long time. When this happens, one would like to find the reasons why the solver fails. To this end, we have designed AltGr-Ergo, an interactive graphical interface for the SMT solver Alt-Ergo which allows users and tool developers to help the solver finish some proofs. AltGr-Ergo gives real time feedback in order to evaluate and quantify progress made by the solver, and also offers various syntactic manipulation options to allow a finer grained interaction with Alt-Ergo. This paper describes these features and their implementation, and gives usage scenarios for most of them.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
