Abstract. A well-known discrete approach to modeling biological regulatory networks is the logical framework developed by R. Thomas. The network structure is captured in an interac...
Abstract. k-SAT is a fundamental constraint satisfaction problem. It involves S(m), the satisfaction set of the conjunction of m clauses, each clause a disjunction of k literals. T...
Abstract. In this paper, we present a syntactic method for solving firstorder equational constraints over term algebras. The presented method exploits a novel notion of quasi-solve...
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 ...

A major difficulty in evaluating incomplete local search style algorithms for constraint satisfaction problems is the need for a source of hard problem instances that are guarante...
