The RISC ProofNavigator: a proving assistant for program verification in the classroom
Wolfgang Schreiner · Formal Aspects of Computing · 2008
Abstract This paper gives an overview of the RISC ProofNavigator, an interactive proving assistant for the area of program verification. The assistant combines the user-guided top-down decomposition of proofs with the automatic simplification and closing of proof states by an external satisfiability solver. The software exhibits a modern graphical user interface which has been developed with a focus on simplicity in order to make the software suitable for educational scenarios. Nevertheless, some use cases of a certain level of complexity demonstrate that it may be also appropriate for various realistic applications.
