A Branch and Bound Algorithm for Numerical MAX-CSP
The Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) framework allows users to define problems in a declarative way, quite independently from the solving process. However, when the problem i...

Approximation scheme for restricted discrete gate sizing targeting delay minimization
Discrete gate sizing is a critical optimization in VLSI circuit design. Given a set of available gate sizes, discrete gate sizing problem asks to assign a size to each gate such th...
