Searching for optimal solutions to a problem using lower bounds obtained from a relaxation is a common idea in Heuristic Search and Planning. In SAT and CSPs, however, explicit rel...
The Prover/Delayer game is a combinatorial game that can be used to prove upper and lower bounds on the size of Tree Resolution proofs, and also perfectly characterizes the space ...
To solve a problem on a given CNF formula F a splitting algorithm recursively calls for F[v] and F[¬v] for a variable v. Obviously, after the first call an algorithm obtains some...
The paper compares two popular strategies for solving propositional satis ability, backtracking search and resolution, and analyzes the complexity of a directional resolution algo...
This paper examines the task of constructing boundedtime self-stabilizing rule-based systems that take their input from an external environment. Bounded response-time and self-sta...
