This paper addresses the challenge of optimizing solving strategies in modern SMT solvers like Z3. By offering user-controllable strategies, these solvers enable users to customize their approach for specific problem sets, leading to improved performance. However, this flexibility comes with a cost: creating an optimized strategy for a set of instances is a complex task that requires significant expertise and effort.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
SMT solvers like Z3 can help solve problems by letting users choose how they want the solver to work. This makes it better at solving specific types of problems. But, it’s hard to figure out the right strategy for a set of problems, even if you’re an expert in SMT solvers.
