Attempts to use finite models to guide the search for proofs by resolution and the like in first order logic all suffer from the need to trade off the expense of generating and m...
A conflict clause represents a backtracking solver’s analysis of why a conflict occurred. This analysis can be used to further prune the search space and to direct the search h...
This paper presents a comparative analysis of neural networks, simulated annealing, and genetic algorithms in the determination of input patterns for testing analog circuits. The ...
We introduce a new technique for counting models of Boolean satisfiability problems. Our approach incorporates information obtained from sampling the solution space. Unlike previ...
One of the most important, common and critical management issues lies in determining the "best" project portfolio out of a given set of investment proposals. As this dec...
