Abstract

Relation algebra is well suited for dealing with many problems on ordered sets. Introducing lattices via order relations, this suggests to apply it and tools for its mechanization for lattice-theoretical problems, too. We combine relation algebra and the BDD-based specific purpose Computer Algebra system RelView to solve some algorithmic problems on orders and lattices and to visualize their solutions.
