Extending Forward Checking
Abstract. Among backtracking based algorithms for constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs), algorithms employing constraint propagation, like forward checking (FC) and MAC, have had...

Generating Special-Purpose Stateless Propagators for Arbitrary Constraints
Given an arbitrary constraint c on n variables with domain size d, we show how to generate a custom propagator that establishes GAC in time O(nd) by precomputing the propagation th...

Exploiting Past and Future: Pruning by Inconsistent Partial State Dominance
It has recently been shown, for the Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP), that the state associated with a node of the search tree built by a backtracking algorithm can be exploit...

On the Inherent Level of Local Consistency in Constraint Networks
We present a new property called constraint looseness and show how it can be used to estimate the level of local consistency of a binary constraint network. Speci cally, we presen...

On Solving Boolean Optimization with Satisfiability-Based Algorithms
This paper proposes new algorithms for the Binate Covering Problem (BCP), a well-known restriction of Boolean Optimization. Binate Covering finds application in many areas of Comp...
