                            - "Whilst the extension of finite model finding techniques to multi-sorted problems is straightforward in theory, this is the first approach to show how to do this in a practical way. 
This work was implemented in the Vampire theorem prover and directly led to Vampire winning the FNT (finite non-theorems) division of the automated reasoning ''world cup'' every year since 2015. It also enabled Vampire to enter and win the UF division of SMT-COMP every year since 2017. 
Used by Amazon Web Services in their Tiros tool to automate the checking of compliance certification."
