We identify a new and important global (or nonbinary) constraint which ensures that the values taken by two vectors of variables, when viewed as multisets, are ordered. This const...

Abstract. While several powerful methods exist for automatically detecting symmetries in instances of constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs), current methods for detecting symmetr...
In order to handle device matching for analog circuits, some pairs of modules need to be placed symmetrically with respect to a common axis. In this paper, we deal with the module...
Abstract. Symmetry breaking is commonly found in self-organized collective decision making. It serves an important functional role, specifically in biological and bio-inspired sys...

Identifying and breaking the symmetries of CNF formulae has been shown to lead to significant reductions in search times. In this paper we describe a more systematic and efficient...
