In the constraint programming framework, state-of-the-art static and dynamic decomposition techniques are hard to apply to problems with complete initial constraint graphs. For suc...
Backbone variables have the same assignment in all solutions to a given constraint satisfaction problem; more generally, bias represents the proportion of solutions that assign a v...

The problem of counting the number of solutions to a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) is rephrased in terms of probability updating in Bayes networks. Approximating the proba...

In this paper, we propose a comprehensive study of second-order consistencies (i.e., consistencies identifying inconsistent pairs of values) for constraint satisfaction. We build ...
Test scheduling is an important problem in system-on-a-chip (SOC) test automation. Efficient test schedules minimize the overall system test application time, avoid test resource c...
