A Characterisation of First-Order Constraint Satisfaction Problems
Abstract. We describe simple algebraic and combinatorial characterisations of finite relational core structures admitting finitely many obstructions. As a consequence, we show th...

Counting-Based Look-Ahead Schemes for Constraint Satisfaction
Abstract. The paper presents a new look-ahead scheme for backtracking search for solving constraint satisfaction problems. This look-ahead scheme computes a heuristic for value ord...

An LP-Designed Algorithm for Constraint Satisfaction
The class Max (r, 2)-CSP consists of constraint satisfaction problems with at most two r-valued variables per clause. For instances with n variables and m binary clauses, we presen...

A Constraint Satisfaction Approach to Parametric Differential Equations
Parametric ordinary differential equations arise in many areas of science and engineering. Since some of the data is uncertain and given by intervals, traditional numerical method...

Ants can solve constraint satisfaction problems
In this paper, we describe a new incomplete approach for solving constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) based on the ant colony optimization (ACO) metaheuristic. The idea is to us...
