  Abstract

Recently in the field of model checking, to overcome the state explosion problem, the method of using a SAT-solver is mainly researched. To use a SAT-solver, the system to be verified is translated into CNF and the Boolean cardinality constraint is widely used in translating the system into CNF. In BCC it is dealt with set of boolean variables, but there is no translating method of the sequence among Boolean variables. In this paper, we propose methods for translating the problem, which is extracting a subsequence with length k from a sequence of Boolean variables, into CNF formulas. Through experimental results, we show that our method is more efficient than using only BCC.
