We address the problem of checking the satisfiability of a set of constrained Horn clauses (CHCs) possibly including more than one query. We propose a transformation technique that takes as input a set of CHCs, including a set of queries, and returns as output a new set of CHCs, such that the transformed CHCs are satisfiable if and only if so are the original ones, and the transformed CHCs incorporate in each new query suitable information coming from the other ones so that the CHC satisfiability algorithm is able to exploit the relationships among all queries. We show that our proposed technique is effective on a non trivial benchmark of sets of CHCs that encode many verification problems for programs manipulating algebraic data types such as lists and trees.

Abstract
We address the problem of checking the satisfiability of a set of constrained Horn clauses (CHCs) possibly including more than one query. We propose a transformation technique that takes as input a set of CHCs, including a set of queries, and returns as output a new set of CHCs, such that the transformed CHCs are satisfiable if and only if so are the original ones, and the transformed CHCs incorporate in each new query suitable information coming from the other ones so that the CHC satisfiability algorithm is able to exploit the relationships among all queries. We show that our proposed technique is effective on a non trivial benchmark of sets of CHCs that encode many verification problems for programs manipulating algebraic data types such as lists and trees.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
