  We present the latest major release version 6.0 of the quantified Boolean
formula (QBF) solver DepQBF, which is based on QCDCL. QCDCL is an extension of
the conflict-driven clause learning (CDCL) paradigm implemented in state of the
art propositional satisfiability (SAT) solvers. The Q-resolution calculus
(QRES) is a QBF proof system which underlies QCDCL. QCDCL solvers can produce
QRES proofs of QBFs in prenex conjunctive normal form (PCNF) as a byproduct of
the solving process. In contrast to traditional QCDCL based on QRES, DepQBF 6.0
implements a variant of QCDCL which is based on a generalization of QRES. This
generalization is due to a set of additional axioms and leaves the original
Q-resolution rules unchanged. The generalization of QRES enables QCDCL to
potentially produce exponentially shorter proofs than the traditional variant.
We present an overview of the features implemented in DepQBF and report on
experimental results which demonstrate the effectiveness of generalized QRES in
QCDCL.
