  • Frontend:

    • new experimental support for the SMT2 standard, and for PSMT2: a conservative extension of SMT2 with prenex polymorphism

    • soundness bugfix in UF module

version 2.1.0, March 14, 2018

    • improve handling of multiple goals per file. Add the ability to set a timelimit per goal in this case with option "-timelimit-per-goal"

    • add the ability to dynamically load new parsers with option "-parser".

version 2.0.0, November 14, 2017

  • integration of floating-point arithmetic reasoning: this is done via the support of the rounding operator as done in the Gappa tool. FPA reasoning can be enabled by calling Alt-Ergo as follows:

    alt-ergo -use-fpa -prelude fpa-theory-2017-01-04-16h00.why file.why

    where fpa-theory-2017-01-04-16h00.why is a prelude distributed with Alt-Ergo. More details about the integration are given in this paper: https://hal.inria.fr/hal-01522770, and dditional benchmarks can be found here: https://gitlab.com/OCamlPro-Iguernlala/Three-Tier-FPA-Benchs

  • a new lightweight reasoning step before SAT solving that enables a kind of backward reasoning/goal unfolding (can be disabled with option -no-backward)

  • integration of a simple cache mechanism for unit facts in the SAT (learnt clauses, assumed facts, instances, theory deductions, ...) to improve BCP (can be disabled with option -no-sat-learning)

  • the code of the profiler is now integrated in Alt-Ergo and is statically linked

  • deep code refactoring. In particular, one can easily build an Alt-Ergo library or define/register a new parser

  • bugfix in UF related to normalization of terms in presence of AC symbols

  • new options -no-decisions and -no-fm to disable decisions in the SAT and the Fourier-Motzkin algorithm, respectively

  • new improvements and heuristics in the SAT, terms, formulas, congruence closure, profiler, ...

  • update licensing: most files are now licensed under the terms of the Apache license v2. Some recent OCamlPro additions are licensed under the terms of the OCamlPro Non-Commercial Purpose License v1

version 1.30, November 21, 2016

  • experimental support for models generation (for more details, see http://www.ocamlpro.com/2016/11/21/release-of-alt-ergo-1-30-with-experimental-support-for-models-generation/).

  • simplify formulas of the form "forall x : t. x <> t or F" when t does not contain x. The only relevant instance in this case is "(x <> t or F) {x |-> t}". In a similar way, this allows to simplify formulas of the form "exists x : t. x = t and F" to "F {x |-> t}".

  • integration of general simplex in IntervalCalculus based on ocplib-simplex.

  • important parts of Intervals and IntervalCalculus have been rewritten and improved.

  • improve tightening of intervals for non-linear variables, and of the CP-like loop.

  • extend Fourier-Motzkin to deduce more bounds based on relational dependencies of the form "c * x <= (Sum_i d_i * y_i) + e"

  • various improvements in the default SAT solver, Term, Formula, IntervalCalculus, Matching, Numbers, case-split, ...

  • various (soundness and/or completeness) bug fixes in Uf, Intervals, IntervalCalculus, Theory, Formula, type-checking, Triggers, fm-simplex and satML, ...

  • new option "-inst-after-bj" that forces an instantiation round after each backtracking/backjumping in the default SAT solver.

  • new option "-no-backjumping" that disables backjumping in the default SAT solver (for debugging).

  • new option "-fm-cross-limit" that controls the number of intermediate inequalities produces by Fourier-Motzking. Default value is 10,000.

  • new option "-no-ac" to be able to deactivate the AC theory

  • new option "-no-NLA" that disables non-linear arithmetic reasoning (*, /, %). Non-linear multiplication remains AC.

version 1.20, February 09, 2016

  • default value of option -age-bound increased from 10 to 50

  • bugfix when using option --all-models

  • improvements in Matching: a set of instances may cause more than one conflict. It's better to detect the more precise one

  • remove case-split limit for the theory of arrays

  • bugfix in the profiler plugin

  • improvements in the default SAT solver

version 1.10, October 19, 2015

  • Improvements and bug fixes in the satML plugin

  • Improvement of the solver of linear arithmetic in presence of non-linear arithmetic parts in the equations to be solved

  • Many improvements in case-split analysis. In particular, this is now performed by explicit calls from the SAT solver. Its behavior can be controlled with the new option "-case-split-policy". Possible values for this option are: "after-theory-assume" (default), "before-matching", and "after-matching".

  • Alt-Ergo can now be called on zipped files (eg. .mlw.zip or .why.zip). Decompression is done on the fly with camlzip.

  • Soundness bug fixes in arithmetic, interval calculus, union-find, ...

  • Code reviewing/refactoring/rewriting/optimization in many parts of the solver

version 1.00, January 29, 2015

  • General Improvements:

    ** theories data structures: semantic values (internal theories representation of terms) are now hash-consed. This enables the use of hash-based comparison (instead of structural comparison) when possible

    ** theories combination: the dispatcher component, that sends literals assumed by the SAT solver to different theories depending on whether these literals are equalities, disequalities or inequalities, has been re-implemented. The new code is much simpler and enables new optimizations and factorizations

    ** case-split analysis: we made several improvements in the heuristics of the case-split analysis mechanism over finite domains

    ** explanations propagation: we improved explanations propagation in congruence closure and linear arithmetic algorithms. This makes the proofs faster thanks to a better back-jumping in the SAT solver part

    ** linear integer arithmetic: we re-implemented several parts of linear arithmetic and introduced important improvements in the Fourier-Motzkin algorithm to make it run on smaller sub-problems avoiding some redundant executions. These optimizations allowed a significant speed up on our internal benchmarks

    ** data structures: we optimized hash-consing and some functions in the "formula" and "literal" modules

    ** SAT solving: we made a lot of improvements to the default SAT-solver and to the SatML plugin. In particular, the decision procedure part now receives facts (literals) in bulk from the solvers, rather than individually, trimming the costs of intermediate calls to theories reasoners, such as Fourier-Motzkin

    ** Matching: we extended the E-matching algorithm to also perform matching modulo the theory of records. In addition, we simplified matching heuristics and optimized the E-matching process to avoid computing the same instances several times

    ** Memory management: thanks to the ocp-memprof tool (http://memprof.typerex.org/), we identified some parts of Alt-Ergo that needed some improvements in order to avoid useless memory allocations, and thus unburden the OCaml garbage collector

    ** the function that retrieves the used axioms and predicates (when option 'save-used-context' is set) has been improved

  • Bug Fixes:

    ** 6 in the "inequalities" module of linear arithmetic

    ** 4 in the "formula" module

    ** 3 in the "ty" module used for types representation and manipulation

    ** 2 in the "theories front-end" module that interacts with the SAT solvers

    ** 1 in the "congruence closure" algorithm

    ** 1 in "existential quantifiers elimination" module

    ** 1 in the "type-checker"

    ** 1 in the "AC theory" of associative and commutative function symbols

    ** 1 in the "union-find" module

  • New OCamlPro Plugins:

    ** profiling plugin: when activated, this plugin records and prints some information about the current execution of Alt-Ergo every 'n' seconds: In particular, one can observe a module being activated, a function being called, the amount of time spent in every module/function, the current decision/instantiation level, the number of decisions/instantiations that have been made so far, the number of case-splits, of boolean/theory conflicts, of assumptions in the decision procedure, of generated instances per axiom, ...

    ** fm-simplex plugin: when activated, this plugin is used instead of the Fourier-Motzkin method to infer bounds for linear integer arithmetic affine forms (which are used in the case-split analysis process). This module uses the Simplex algorithm to simulate particular runs of Fourier-Motzkin. In practice, the new algorithm scales better on linear integer arithmetic problems containing lots of inequalities

  • New Options:

    -version-info: prints some information about this version of Alt-Ergo (release and compilation dates, release commit ID)

    -no-theory: deactivate theory reasoning. In this case, only the SAT-solver and the matching parts are used

    -inequalities-plugin: specify a plugin to use, instead of the "default" Fourier-Motzkin algorithm, to handle inequalities of linear arithmetic

    -tighten-vars: when this option is set, the Fm-Simplex plugin will try to infer bounds for integer variables as well. Note that this option may be very expensive

    -profiling-plugin: specify a profiling plugin to use to monitor an execution of Alt-Ergo

    -profiling : makes the profiling module prints its information every seconds

    -no-tcp: deactivate constraints propagation modulo theories

  • Removed Capabilities:

    ** the pruning module used in the frontend is not available anymore

    ** the SMT and SMT2 front-ends have been removed. We plan to implement a new front-end for SMT2 in upcoming releases

version 0.99.1, December 30, 2014

o the "SAT solving" part can now be delegated to an external plugin;

o new experimental SAT solver based on mini-SAT, provided as a plugin. This solver is, in general, more efficient on ground problems;

o heuristics simplification in the default SAT solver and in the matching (instantiation) module;

o re-implementation of internal literals representation;

o improvement of theories combination architecture;

o rewriting some parts of the formulas module;

o bugfixes in records and numbers modules;

o new option "-no-Ematching" to perform matching without equality reasoning (i.e. without considering "equivalence classes"). This option is very useful for benchmarks coming from Atelier-B;

o two new experimental options: "-save-used-context" and "-replay-used-context". When the goal is proved valid, the first option allows to save the names of useful axioms into a ".used" file. The second one is used to replay the proof using only the axioms listed in the corresponding ".used" file. Note that the replay may fail because of the absence of necessary ground terms generated by useless axioms (that are not included in .used file) during the initial run.

version 0.95.2, September 20th, 2013

o Alt-Ergo is now maintained and distributed by OCamlPro, while academic research is conducted in partnership with the VALS team (LRI), o source code is reorganized into sub-directories, o quantifiers instantiation heuristics are simplified, o bug-fixes in matching, nums, records, sums, o improvement of the GUI when opening big files.

version 0.95.1, March 05th, 2013

o bug fixes (existantial elimination, Euclidean division) o minor enhancement (transformation of boolean equalities into equivalences) o minor enhancement (sort axioms/definitions instances according to their size)

version 0.95, January 11th, 2013

  • Main changes in the solver:

o new combination method for Shostak solvers

o improvement of non-linear multiplication distribution over addition

o input language extension: polymorphic declaration are now allowed (logic x: 'a)

o input language extension: the types of terms can now be forced in a formula using the construct <term> : <type> (see man for an example)

o input language modification: a label should be a string. The construct <label> : <term> is replaced by "<label>" : <term>

o new keywords in the syntax: inversion, check, cut and include

o experimental options for theories models generation:
    -model option: model on labeled terms
    -complete-model option: complete model

o -timelimit n option: set the time limit to n seconds (not supported on Windows)

o bug fixes
  • Main changes in the graphical interface:

o the number of instances for each axiom are now shown on the right of the GUI

o the number of instances of each axiom can be limited by the user

o the modifications made in the GUI can now be saved in a session file <f>.agr

o session files can be replayed with -replay option

o models can be displayed in the GUI

o unsat-cores (-proof option) can be used to simplify the context

version 0.94, December 2nd, 2011

o the theory of records replaces the theory of pairs o bug fixes (intervals, term data-structure, stack-overflows, matching, existentials, distincts, CC, GUI) o improvements (SMT-Lib2 front-end, intervals, case-splits, triggers, lets) o multiset ordering for AC(X) o manual lemma instantiation in the GUI

version 0.93.1, May 9th, 2011

o bug fixes (distinct, let-in, explanations)

version 0.93, April 12th, 2011

o -steps stops Alt-Ergo after a given number of steps o -max-split option to limit the number of case-splits o new polymorphic theory of arrays: ('a, 'b) farray o explanations (-proof option) o Built-in support for enumeration types o graphical frontend (altgr-ergo), needs to be compiled with make gui && make install-gui o new predicate distinct (a,b,c, ...) to express that constants a,b,c,... are pairwise distinct o new constructs: let x = in let x = in o partial support for / (division) operator o bug fixes
