We define a translation from Weighted CSP to signed Max-SAT, and a complete resolution-style calculus for solving signed Max-SAT. Based on these results, we then describe an orig...
In this paper, we propose a novel approach to solving the distributed constraint optimisation problem (DCOP) that guarantees completeness, while having linear communication comple...
We define a number of original encodings that map MaxCSP instances into Partial Max-SAT instances. Our encodings rely on the well-known direct and support encodings from CSP into...
We define a resolution-style rule for solving the Max-SAT problem of Signed CNF formulas (Signed Max-SAT) and prove that our rule provides a complete calculus for that problem. F...
For the last ten years, a significant amount of work in the constraint community has been devoted to the improvement of complete methods for solving soft constraints networks. We ...
