We propose and study a technique to improve the performance of those local-search SAT solvers that proceed by executing a prespecified number of tries, each starting with an eleme...
Sets of DNA strands that satisfy combinatorial constraints play an important role in various approaches to biomolecular computation, nanostructure design, and molecular tagging. Th...
Abstract. VLSI chips design is becoming increasingly complex and calling for more and more automation. Many chip design problems can be formulated naturally as constraint problems ...

In this paper an original dynamic partition of formulae in Conjunctive Normal Form (CNF) is presented. It is based on the autarky concept first introduced by Monien and Speckenme...
Stochastic local search (SLS) algorithms have been successfully applied to hard combinatorial problems from different domains. Due to their inherent randomness, the run-time behav...
