3 SAT Basics (2/3) A set of propositional variables and Conjnctive ormal Form (CF) clases involving variables (x v x 2 v x 3 ) (x 2 v x v x 4 ) x, x 2, x 3 and x 4 are variables (tre or false) Literals: Variable and its negation x and x A clase is satisfied if one of the literals is tre x =tre satisfies clase x =false satisfies clase 2 Soltion: An assignment/interpretation/model that satisfies all clases 3/23

4 SAT Basics (3/3) DIMACS SAT Format Ex. (x x 2 x 3 ) (x 2 x x 4 ) p cnf Model/ soltion x x 2 x 3 x 4 Formla T T T T T T T T F T T T F T T T T F F T T F T T T T F T F F T F F T T T F F F F F T T T T F T T F T F T F T F F T F F F F F T T T F F T F T F F F T T F F F F T 4/23
