The problems come from expressiveness of assertion languages, automatic inference of loop invariants and ability of automated theorem provers. In this paper, we consider how to divide the extra burden into pieces for programmers, verification condition generators and automated theorem provers respectively, while enhancing the expressiveness of assertion languages by allowing use-defined predicates and logical variables. This paper adopts a method of assisting automated theorem provers by providing inductive properties among user-defined predicates and designs an automated proof method for inductive properties of data structures. This paper also designs a method of transferring the extra burden from logical variables to verification condition generators instead of automated theorem provers.
