This open access book constitutes the proceedings of the 29th International Conference on Automated Deduction, CADE 29, which took place in Rome, Italy, during July 2023. The 28 full papers and 5 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 77 submissions. CADE is the major forum for the presentation of research in all aspects of automated deduction, including foundations, applications, implementations, and practical experience. The papers are organized in the following topics: Logical foundations; theory and principles; implementation and application; ATP and AI; and system descriptions.

The refereed proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Automated Deduction, CADE 2003, held in Miami Beach, FL, USA in July 2003. The 29 revised full papers and 7 system description papers presented together with an invited paper and 3 abstracts of invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 83 submissions. All current aspects of automated deduction are discussed, ranging from theoretical and methodological issues to the presentation of new theorem provers and systems.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 23rd International Conference on Automated Deduction, CADE-23, held in Wrocław, Poland, in July/August 2011. The 28 revised full papers and 7 system descriptions presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 80 submissions. Furthermore, four invited lectures by distinguished experts in the area were included. Among the topics addressed are systems and tools for automated reasoning, rewriting logics, security protocol verification, unification, theorem proving, clause elimination, SAT, satifiability, interactive theorem proving, theory reasoning, static analysis, decision procedures, etc.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Automated Deduction, CADE-15, held in Lindau, Germany, in July 1998. The volume presents three invited contributions together with 25 revised full papers and 10 revised system descriptions; these were selected from a total of 120 submissions. The papers address all current issues in automated deduction and theorem proving based on resolution, superposition, model generation and elimination, or connection tableau calculus, in first-order, higher-order, intuitionistic, or modal logics, and describe applications to geometry, computer algebra, or reactive systems.

For the past 25 years the CADE conference has been the major forum for the presentation of new results in automated deduction. This volume contains the papers and system descriptions selected for the 17th International Conference on Automated Deduction, CADE-17, held June 17-20, 2000,at Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (USA). Fifty-three research papers and twenty system descriptions were submitted by researchers from ?fteen countries. Each submission was reviewed by at least three reviewers. Twenty-four research papers and ?fteen system descriptions were accepted. The accepted papers cover a variety of topics related to t- orem proving and its applications such as proof carrying code, cryptographic protocol veri?cation, model checking, cooperating decision procedures, program veri?cation, and resolution theorem proving. The program also included three invited lectures: “High-level veri?cation using theorem proving and formalized mathematics” by John Harrison, “Sc- able Knowledge Representation and Reasoning Systems” by Henry Kautz, and “Connecting Bits with Floating-Point Numbers: Model Checking and Theorem Proving in Practice” by Carl Seger. Abstracts or full papers of these talks are included in this volume.In addition to the accepted papers, system descriptions, andinvited talks, this volumecontains one page summaries of four tutorials and ?ve workshops held in conjunction with CADE-17.

This volume contains the reviewed papers presented at the 12th International Conference on Automated Deduction (CADE-12) held at Nancy, France in June/July 1994. The 67 papers presented were selected from 177 submissions and document many of the most important research results in automated deduction since CADE-11 was held in June 1992. The volume is organized in chapters on heuristics, resolution systems, induction, controlling resolutions, ATP problems, unification, LP applications, special-purpose provers, rewrite rule termination, ATP efficiency, AC unification, higher-order theorem proving, natural systems, problem sets, and system descriptions.

Deduction: Automated Logic presents the broad topic of automated deductive reasoning in a concise and comprehensive manner. This book features broad coverage of deductive methods on the level of propositional and first-order logic, the strategic aspects of automated deduction, the applications of deduction mechanisms to a range of different areas, and their realization in concrete systems. This book can be used both by readers seeking a broad survey of the area, and by those requiring a reference for more detailed analysis on individual topics. It is an invaluable text for students of artificial intelligence, cognitive science, and theorum- proving at the advanced undergraduate and graduate level. Intended for readers who wish to become familiar with the area as a whole, or with selected topics, in a relatively short time Serves as a reference book for consultation on individual topics Contains one of the most comprehensive collections of different deduction mechanisms which has ever appeared in a single book, all presented in a uniform framework Contains extensive references and exercises Thoroughly cross-referenced

The First CADE in the Third Millennium This volume contains the papers presented at the Eighteenth International C- ference on Automated Deduction (CADE-18) held on July 27–30th, 2002, at the University of Copenhagen as part of the Federated Logic Conference (FLoC 2002). Despite a large number of deduction-related conferences springing into existence at the end of the last millennium, the CADE conferences continue to be the major forum for the presentation of new research in all aspects of automated deduction. CADE-18 was sponsored by the Association for Auto- ted Reasoning, CADE Inc., the Department of Computer Science at Chalmers University, the Gesellschaft fur ̈ Informatik, Safelogic AB, and the University of Koblenz-Landau. There were 70 submissions, including 60 regular papers and 10 system - scriptions. Each submission was reviewed by at least ?ve program committee members and an electronic program committee meeting was held via the Int- net. The committee decided to accept 27 regular papers and 9 system descr- tions. One paper switched its category after refereeing, thus the total number of system descriptions in this volume is 10. In addition to the refereed papers, this volume contains an extended abstract of the CADE invited talk by Ian Horrocks, the joint CADE/CAV invited talk by Sharad Malik, and the joint CADE-TABLEAUX invited talk by Matthias Baaz. One more invited lecture was given by Daniel Jackson.
