Minisat 1.14 is used as a decision procedure. It is linked internally, so there is no need to download MiniSat separately. 2. Improved simulation of abstract transitions using caching. 3. Changes related to discovery of predicates, simplification of weakest pre-conditions. 4. New options for generating predicate clusters using spurious transitions. -----------------------------------------------------------------------
