Theory Solving Made Easy with Clingo 5

Authors: Martin Gebser, Roland Kaminski, Benjamin Kaufmann, Max Ostrowski, Torsten Schaub, and Philipp Wanko

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 52, Technical Communications of the 32nd International Conference on Logic Programming (ICLP 2016)

Abstract
Answer Set Programming (ASP) is a model, ground, and solve paradigm. The integration of application- or theory-specific reasoning into ASP systems thus impacts on many if not all elements of its workflow, viz. input language, grounding, intermediate language, solving, and output format. We address this challenge with the fifth generation of the ASP system clingo and its grounding and solving components by equipping them with well-defined generic interfaces facilitating the manifold integration efforts. On the grounder's side, we introduce a generic way of specifying language extensions and propose an intermediate format accommodating their ground representation. At the solver end, this is accompanied by high-level interfaces easing the integration of theory propagators dealing with these extensions.

Answer Set Solving with Generalized Learned Constraints

Authors: Martin Gebser, Roland Kaminski, Benjamin Kaufmann, Patrick Lühne, Javier Romero, and Torsten Schaub

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 52, Technical Communications of the 32nd International Conference on Logic Programming (ICLP 2016)

Abstract
Conflict learning plays a key role in modern Boolean constraint solving. Advanced in satisfiability testing, it has meanwhile become a base technology in many neighboring fields, among them answer set programming (ASP). However, learned constraints are only valid for a currently solved problem instance and do not carry over to similar instances. We address this issue in ASP and introduce a framework featuring an integrated feedback loop that allows for reusing conflict constraints. The idea is to extract (propositional) conflict constraints, generalize and validate them, and reuse them as integrity constraints. Although we explore our approach in the context of dynamic applications based on transition systems, it is driven by the ultimate objective of overcoming the issue that learned knowledge is bound to specific problem instances. We implemented this workflow in two systems, namely, a variant of the ASP solver clasp that extracts integrity constraints along with a downstream system for generalizing and validating them.

aspeed: ASP-based Solver Scheduling

Authors: Holger Hoos, Roland Kaminski, Torsten Schaub, and Marius Schneider

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 17, Technical Communications of the 28th International Conference on Logic Programming (ICLP'12) (2012)

Abstract
Although Boolean Constraint Technology has made tremendous progress over the last decade, it suffers from a great sensitivity to search configuration. This problem was impressively counterbalanced at the 2011 SAT Competition by the rather simple approach of ppfolio relying on a handmade, uniform and unordered solver schedule. Inspired by this, we take advantage of the modeling and solving capacities of ASP to automatically determine more refined, that is, non-uniform and ordered solver schedules from existing benchmarking data. We begin by formulating the determination of such schedules as multi-criteria optimization problems and provide corresponding ASP encodings. The resulting encodings are easily customizable for different settings and the computation of optimum schedules can mostly be done in the blink of an eye, even when dealing with large runtime data sets stemming from many solvers on hundreds to thousands of instances. Also, its high customizability made it easy to generate even parallel schedules for multi-core machines.

Multi-Criteria Optimization in Answer Set Programming

Authors: Martin Gebser, Roland Kaminski, Benjamin Kaufmann, and Torsten Schaub

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 11, Technical Communications of the 27th International Conference on Logic Programming (ICLP'11) (2011)

Abstract
We elaborate upon new strategies and heuristics for solving multi-criteria optimization problems via Answer Set Programming (ASP). In particular, we conceive a new solving algorithm, based on conflictdriven learning, allowing for non-uniform descents during optimization. We apply these techniques to solve realistic Linux package configuration problems. To this end, we describe the Linux package configuration tool aspcud and compare its performance with systems pursuing alternative approaches.
