In the Sep 2024 and Aug 2023 exams, Problem 1 included (a) a Tseitin CNF-conversion step before DPLL, and (c) building a BDD directly from a raw formula, deriving the Shannon normal form myself first. Neither has appeared since — Feb 2025, Sep 2025, and Feb 2026 all go straight to DPLL, and their part (c) just converts between an already-given SNF and BDD instead. Are Tseitin and from-scratch BDD construction back in scope this year, or dropped for good?

In general, we feel free to change any of the exam problems from time to time. Remember that we are examining the content of the lecture (slides) and not just the content of the previous exam papers.

Apart from that, converting formulas to BDDs / normal forms, and computing linear clause forms were (almost) always part of the exam papers.
