Abstract: | This article is the twenty-ninth of a series of articles discussing various open research problems in automated reasoning. The problem proposed for research asks one to find criteria that an automated reasoning program can apply to decide when to conduct a case analysis argument and to decide which cases are appropriate. When the choice of employing a case analysis argument is wise and the cases are well chosen, the likelihood that the reasoning program — or, for that matter, a person — will find an answer to the given question is sharply increased.This work was supported by the Office of Scientific Computing, U.S. Department of Energy, under Contract W-31-109-Eng-38. |
