An approach to automatic imperative program synthesis is presented which builds upon Gries' vision of developing a program and its proof hand in hand.

An elementary outline of the theorem-proving approach to automatic program synthesis is given, without dwelling on technical details.

A proof plan that characterises a family of proofs corresponding to the synthesis of recursive functional programs, which makes use of meta-variables.

We investigate these methods and heuristics as a basis for mechanizing program synthesis. Our approach combines proof planning with conventional partial order ...

This paper presents an overview and a survey of logic program synthesis. Logic program synthesis is interpreted here in a broad way; it is concerned with ...

This work demonstrates that proof planning provides a local perspective on the synthesis task and shows that proof methods can be extended to represent ...

Abstract. We consider the problem of obtaining an implementation of an algorithm from its specification. We assume that these specifications are written in ...
