 | **Description** | The ACL2 seminar focuses on the development and application of automated reasoning tools, especially the [[https://​www.cs.utexas.edu/​~moore/​acl2/​|ACL2 theorem prover]]. ​ ACL2 is both a programming language in which you can model computer systems and a tool to help you prove properties of those models, and is part of the Boyer-Moore family of provers, for which its authors have received the 2005 ACM Software System Award. ​ Typically, the seminar begins with a "round table",​ which is a free-form discussion based on questions and replies on a variety of topics such as existing work and ACL2 usage questions. ​ A prepared talk is then given. ​ There is a tradition of encouraging questions and welcoming newcomers. | | **Description** | The ACL2 seminar focuses on the development and application of automated reasoning tools, especially the [[https://​www.cs.utexas.edu/​~moore/​acl2/​|ACL2 theorem prover]]. ​ ACL2 is both a programming language in which you can model computer systems and a tool to help you prove properties of those models, and is part of the Boyer-Moore family of provers, for which its authors have received the 2005 ACM Software System Award. ​ Typically, the seminar begins with a "round table",​ which is a free-form discussion based on questions and replies on a variety of topics such as existing work and ACL2 usage questions. ​ A prepared talk is then given. ​ There is a tradition of encouraging questions and welcoming newcomers. |
