We present a variety of translation options for converting Alloy to SMT-LIB via Alloy’s Kodkod interface. Our translations, which are implemented in a library that we call Astra, are based on converting the set and relational operations of Alloy into their equivalent in typed first order logic (TFOL).

We consider the problem of computing the nearest matrix polynomial with a non-trivial Smith Normal Form (SNF). This is a non-convex optimization problem where we find a nearby matrix polynomial with prescribed eigenvalues and associated multiplicity structure in the invariant factors.

Big Data analytics in science and industry are performed on a range of heterogeneous data stores, both traditional and modern, and on a diversity of query engines. Workflows are difficult to design and implement since they span a variety of systems. To reduce development time and processing costs, some automation is needed.
