Backbones of propositional theories are literals that are true in every model. Backbones have been used for characterizing the hardness of decision and optimization problems. Moreo...
Propositional satisfiability solving, or SAT, is an important reasoning task arising in numerous applications, such as circuit design, formal verification, planning, scheduling or...
In many AI fields, the problem of finding out a solution which is as close as possible to a given configuration has to be faced. This paper addresses this problem in a propositiona...
A DNA algorithm for SAT, the satisfiability of propositional formulae, is presented where the number of separation steps is given by the number of clauses of the instance. This re...
We propose a framework to compute the utility of a proposal w.r.t. a preference set in a negotiation process. In particular, we refer to preferences expressed as weighted formulas ...
