An Application of Constraint Programming to Superblock Instruction Scheduling
Modern computer architectures have complex features that can only be fully taken advantage of if the compiler schedules the compiled code. A standard region of code for scheduling ...

Switching among Non-Weighting, Clause Weighting, and Variable Weighting in Local Search for SAT
One way to design a local search algorithm that is effective on many types of instances is allowing this algorithm to switch among heuristics. In this paper, we refer to the way in...

Length-Lex Bounds Consistency for Knapsack Constraints
Recently, a new domain store for set-variables has been proposed which totally orders all values in the domain of a set-variable based on cardinality and lexicography. Traditionall...

Approximate Compilation of Constraints into Multivalued Decision Diagrams
We present an incremental refinement algorithm for approximate compilation of constraint satisfaction models into multivalued decision diagrams (MDDs). The algorithm uses a vertex ...

Perfect Constraints Are Tractable
By using recent results from graph theory, including the Strong Perfect Graph Theorem, we obtain a unifying framework for a number of tractable classes of constraint problems. Thes...
