Concurrent Backtrack Search on DisCSPs
A distributed search algorithm for solving distributed constraint satisfaction problems (DisCSPs) is presented. The proposed algorithm is composed of multiple search processes (SP...

The Scaling of Search Cost
We show that a resealed constrainedness parameter provides the basis for accurate numerical models of search cost for both backtracking and local search algorithms. In the past, t...

Encoding Quantified CSPs as Quantified Boolean Formulae
Quantified Constraint Satisfaction Problems (QCSPs) are CSPs in which some variables are universally quantified. For each possible value of such variables, we have to find ways to ...

Mini-bucket Elimination with Bucket Propagation
Many important combinatorial optimization problems can be expressed as constraint satisfaction problems with soft constraints. When problems are too difficult to be solved exactly,...

Tractable Optimal Competitive Scheduling
In this paper we describe the problem of Optimal Competitive Scheduling, which consists of activities that compete for a shared resource. The objective is to choose a subset of ac...
