Pragmatics of SAT
a workshop of the SAT conference within the
Federated Logic Conference (FLoC) 2010 July 10, 2010 - Edinburgh,
Scotland, UK
The aim of the pragmatics of SAT workshop is to allow researchers
concerned with the design of efficient SAT solvers or SAT encodings to
meet and discuss about their latest results. The workshop is also the
place for users of SAT technology to present their applications. This
workshop follows the spirit of Pragmatics of Decision Procedures in
Automated Reasoning organized at FLoC 2006.
Topics
Main areas of interest include, but are not restricted to:
* techniques for debugging or certifying solvers
* visualisation of benchmarks structure
* monitoring solver behaviour
* evaluation of solvers
* efficient data structures
* domain specific encodings
* taking into account multi-core technology
* domain specific heuristics
* new application of sat technology
* system/library description
Submission
There are two possible type of submissions for the workshop. The
papers are supposed to be submitted electronically through EasyChair
as a PDF file using the LNCS style (the same as the SAT conference).
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=pos10
* Regular papers (up to 14 pages). Accepted papers will be
published in the CEUR-WS electronic proceedings.
* System descriptions (up to 6 pages). Accepted papers will be
published in the JSAT journal, in the new system description category.
The final format of the paper will be different: system descriptions
will be published as a 4 page JSAT style while regular paper will use
a specific workshop style.
Authors should provide enough information and/or data for reviewers to
confirm any performance claims. This includes links to a runnable
system, access to benchmarks, reference to a public performance
results, etc.
The system description category especially targets the authors of the
systems that enter the SAT 2010 conference competitive events (SAT
Race 2010, PB 2010, MAXSAT 2010, QBFEVAL 2010, ...). The aim of this
workshop is to push forward peer-reviewed published system
descriptions as a means to spread technical information regarding the
design of solvers. System descriptions are expected to describe
briefly but precisely the main features of the system, in a specific
version.
Regular papers provide more space to describe in detail a full system
or application, provide experimental results, etc.
Important dates
* Submission deadline: March 26, 2010.
* Authors notification: April 23, 2010.
* Final version due: May 15, 2010.
* The workshop will take place on July 10th, 2010.
Tutorial by Youssef Hamadi: From Parallel SAT to Distributed SAT
This tutorial will present an overview of parallelism in SAT. It will
start with a presentation of classical divide and conquer techniques,
discuss their ancient origin and compare them to more recent
portfolio-based algorithms. It will then present the impact of
clause-sharing on their performances and discuss various strategies
used to control the communication overhead. A particular technique
used to control the classical diversification/intensification tradeoff
will also be presented. Finally, perspectives will be given which will
relate the current parallel SAT technologies to the expected evolution
of computational platforms, leading to distributed SAT solving
scenarios.

 | | | That web site is dedicated to SAT solvers designers willing to share the details of their SAT solvers.
It is the expected place to discuss data structures, platform specific tuning, heuristics, etc.
It is also the place to comment the source code of the SAT solvers that participated to the SAT competition.
Only registered users can post a comment or launch a new thread. Please contact daniel at satlive dot org to register to that site. |
