In a previous paper, we have shown that clause sets belonging to the HornBernays-Sch\"onfinkel fragment over simple linear real arithmetic (HBS(SLR))can be translated into HBS clause sets over a finite set of first-orderconstants. The translation preserves validity and satisfiability and it isstill applicable if we extend our input with positive universally orexistentially quantified verification conditions (conjectures). We call thistranslation a Datalog hammer. The combination of its implementation inSPASS-SPL with the Datalog reasoner VLog establishes an effective way ofdeciding verification conditions in the Horn fragment. We verify supervisorcode for two examples: a lane change assistant in a car and an electroniccontrol unit of a supercharged combustion engine. In this paper, we improve ourDatalog hammer in several ways: we generalize it to mixed real-integerarithmetic and finite first-order sorts; we extend the class of acceptableinequalities beyond variable bounds and positively grounded inequalities; andwe significantly reduce the size of the hammer output by a soft typingdiscipline. We call the result the sorted Datalog hammer. It not only allows usto handle more complex supervisor code and to model already consideredsupervisor code more concisely, but it also improves our performance on realworld benchmark examples. Finally, we replace the before file-based interfacebetween SPASS-SPL and VLog by a close coupling resulting in a single executablebinary.<br
