Abstract

Proofs and models are the mainstay of automated reasoning. Traditionally, proofs have taken center stage, because in first-order logic theorem proving is semi-decidable, and model building is not. The growth of algorithmic reasoning and of its applications to software has changed the balance, because if satisfiability is decidable, symmetry is restored, and models are useful for applications and intuitive for users.
