CS 357 Advanced Topics in Formal Methods Stanford University Fall 2019 This course emphasizes SAT and SMT technology and its applications, offering an understanding of theoretical foundations and how to implement a small theory solver. Applications of SAT/SMT technology in the context of verification are also covered. The advanced topics and lack of specified prerequisites suggest this is a high-level course. The course will focus on SAT and SMT technology and their applications. The students will learn the theoretical foundations of SAT/SMT, how to use SAT/SMT technology to solve problems, and finally how to implement a small theory solver of their own. The course will build up towards various applications of SAT/SMT technology in the context of verification.   **Textbook**:None; research papers will be assigned as weekly reading.
