Probability Convergence in a Multithreaded Counting Application
The problem of counting specified combinations of a given set of variables arises in many statistical and data mining applications. To solve this problem, we introduce the PDtree...

Fundamental Domains for Integer Programs with Symmetries
We define a fundamental domain for a linear programming relaxation of a combinatorial integer program which is symmetric under a group action. We then describe a straightforward w...

Rigorous analyses of simple diversity mechanisms
It is widely assumed and observed in experiments that the use of diversity mechanisms in evolutionary algorithms may have a great impact on its running time. Up to now there is no...

Distributed Constraints for Large-Scale Scheduling Problems
Many problems of theoretical and practical interest can be formulated as Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs). The general CSP is known to be NP-complete; however, distributed m...

A Random Constraint Satisfaction Problem That Seems Hard for DPLL
Abstract. This paper discusses an NP-complete constraint satisfaction problem which appears to share many of the threshold characteristics of SAT but is similar to XOR-SAT and so i...
