The QBF and SAT Programming Language

Bule helps you to create beautiful CNF and QBF encodings. The program bule is a sophisticated grounder for the modeling language Bule that support SAT and QBF Solving.

Features

• Grounding with the declarative modelling language Bule
• satisfiability solving - allowing any number of SAT solvers to be called with the grounded CNF formula
• debugging facilities for CNF formulas, statistics on size and quality
• QBF solving
• Various encodings for cardinality constraints and Pseudo Boolean constaints.
• Multiple cardinality encodings

Tutorial

An introduction to the language can be found in this tutorial encoding graph coloring to SAT.
