Theoretical models for the evaluation of quickly improving search strategies, like limited discrepancy search, are based on specific assumptions regarding the probability that a va...
Combination of AI/OR methods is gaining a great deal of attention because many combinatorial problems especially in planning and scheduling areas can be solved by means of combined...
1 This paper provides a new, generalized approach to the problem of encoding information as vectors of binary digits. We furnish a formal definition for the Boolean constrained enc...
ctural abstractions that were introduced in [17]. Compared with other symmetry-breaking techniques, the big advantage of dynamic symmetry breaking is that it can accommodate dynami...
