Due to the increasing complexity of today's circuits a high degree of automation in the design process is mandatory. The detection of faults and design errors is supported qu...
Abstract. In this paper, we explore the two well-known principles of diversification and intensification in portfolio-based parallel SAT solving. These dual concepts play an impo...
We present a Kernighan-Lin style local improvement heuristic for genetic algorithms. We analyze the run-time cost of the heuristic. We demonstrate through experiments that the heur...
Abstract. This paper surveys the theory of bidimensional graph problems. We summarize the known combinatorial and algorithmic results of this theory, the foundational Graph Minor r...
