This thesis introduces a generic method to compute the prime implicates of a logical formula, i.e., the most general clausal consequences of a given logical formula, in any given decidable theory. The principle used is to recursively add to an initially empty set, literals taken from a preselected set of hypotheses until it can be proven that the disjunction of these literals is a consequence of the formula under consideration. Proofs of the termination, correctness and completeness of this algorithm are provided, which ensures that the clauses the method computes are indeed implicates and that all the prime implicates that can be constructed from the initial set are indeed returned. This algorithm is then applied in the context of program ...
