Improved algorithms for 3-coloring, 3-edge-coloring, and constraint satisfaction
We consider worst case time bounds for NP-complete problems including 3-SAT, 3-coloring, 3-edge-coloring, and 3list-coloring. Our algorithms are based on a constraint satisfaction...

On the Computation of Local Interchangeability in Soft Constraint Satisfaction Problems
Freuder in (1991) defined interchangeability for classical Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs). Recently (2002), we extended the definition of interchangeability to Soft CSP...

On the Conversion between Non-Binary and Binary Constraint Satisfaction Problems
It is well known that any non-binary discrete constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) can be translated into an equivalent binary CSP. Two translations are known: the dual graph tra...

Parameterized Complexity of Constraint Satisfaction Problems
We prove a parameterized analog of Schaefer’s Dichotomy Theorem: we show that for every finite boolean constraint family F, deciding whether a formula containing constraints fr...

An Approach to Multiply Segmented Constraint Satisfaction Problems
This paper describes an extension to the constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) approach called MUSE CSP (Multiply SEgmented Constraint Satisfaction Problem). This extension is esp...
