PVS is a prototype system for writing specifications and constructing proofs. Its development
has been shaped by our experiences studying or using several other systems 1 and …

PVS stands for “Prototype Verification System,” and as the name suggests, it is a prototype
environment for specification and verification. This document is a reference manual for the …

Most automated theorem provers suffer from the problem that they can produce proofs only
in formalisms difficult to understand even for experienced mathematicians. Effort has been …

Why3 is the next generation of the Why software verification platform. Why3 clearly
separates the purely logical specification part from generation of verification conditions for …

We describe a tool called CVC Lite (CVCL), an automated theorem prover for formulas in a
union of first-order theories. CVCL supports a set of theories which are useful in verification …

PVS is a comprehensive interactive tool for specification and verification combining an
expressive specification language with an integrated suite of tools for theorem proving and …

PVS is a Prototype Verification System for the development and analysis of formal
specifications. The PVS system primarily consists of a specification language, a parser, a …

Many verification problems reduce to proving the validity of formulas involving both
propositional connectives and domain-specific functions and predicates. This paper …

Although automated proof checking tools for general-purpose logics have been successfully
employed in the verification of digital systems, there are inherent limits to the efficient …

Interactive proof assistants should verify the proofs they receive from automatic theorem
provers. Normally this proof reconstruction takes place internally, forming part of the …
