Techniques and systems for solving a Boolean satisfiability (SAT) problem are described. Specifically, embodiments solve the SAT problem by generating an extended resolution proof. It is well-known that many technological problems can be modeled as SAT problems, and that solving an underlying SAT problem effectively solves the original technological problem. Therefore, embodiments described herein can be used to solve any technological problem that can be modeled as a SAT problem.
