An Effective Decision Procedure for Linear Arithmetic with Integer and Real Variables
<|reference_start|>An Effective Decision Procedure for Linear Arithmetic with Integer and Real Variables: This paper considers finite-automata based algorithms for handling linear arithmetic with both real and integer variables. Previous work has shown that this theory can be dealt with by using finite automata on infinite words, but this involves some difficult and delicate to implement algorithms. The contribution of this paper is to show, using topological arguments, that only a restricted class of automata on infinite words are necessary for handling real and integer linear arithmetic. This allows the use of substantially simpler algorithms, which have been successfully implemented.<|reference_end|>
