Proceedings 10th International Workshop on the ACL2 Theorem Prover and its Applications

Abstract

This volume contains the proceedings of ACL2 2011, the International Workshop on the ACL2 Theorem Prover and its Applications. The workshop was held in Austin, Texas, USA, on November 3-4 2011. ACL2 2011 is the tenth in a series of workshops on the ACL2 Theorem Prover and its Applications. The workshop was co-located with the eleventh Conference on Formal Methods in Computer Aided Design (FMCAD'11). The ACL2 Workshop series provide a major technical forum for researchers to present and discuss improvements and extensions to the theorem prover, comparisons of ACL2 with other systems, and applications of ACL2 in formal verification or formalized mathematics. Workshops have been held at approxiamately 18 month intervals since 1999. ACL2 is the most recent incarnation of the Boyer-Moore family of theorem provers, for which, Robert Boyer, Matt Kaufmann and J Strother Moore received the 2005 ACM Software System Award. It is state-of-the-art automated reasoning system that has been successfully used in academia, government and industry for specification and verification of computing systems.
