In the last 15 years, starting the mid 1990s to today, SAT/SMT

...

This summer school aims at unpacking the collective knowledge on SAT/SMT solvers, their applications, and theoretical foundations for researchers as diverse as professors and graduate students in software engineering to hackers.The aims of the summer school include:

  1. To be a marketplace of ideas for SAT/SMT solver developers and power users
  2. Connect new power users with established users and solver developers
  3. Connect complexity theorists with practitioners
  4. Connect researchers in non-CDCL approaches (e.g., Physics inspired) with researchers in CDCL-based approaches to SAT
  5. Encourage discussion on solvers for multicores, solver-based programming languages and empirical complexity

...

 solvers  have seen an amazing improvement in   efficiency and expressive power. The result has essentially been a   dramatic rise in the use of SAT/SMT solvers in many areas of software   engineering research such as formal methods, synthesis, program analysis and   testing. It is safe to say that SAT/SMT solving is a disruptive   technology. Irrespective of one's strategic frame of thought in the   context of software reliability research, SAT/SMT solvers are an indispensable tactic.
