(LaTeX) Abstract:

We describe an iterative algorithm for mechanically deriving loop invariants for the purpose of proving the partial correctness of programs. The algorithm is based on resolution and a novel unskolemization technique for deriving logical consequences of first-order formulas. Our method is complete in the sense that if a loop invariant exists for a loop in a given first-order language relative to a given finite set of first-order axioms, then the algorithm produces a loop invariant for that loop which can be used for proving the partial correctness of the program. Existing techniques in the literature are not complete.
