Breaking Instance-Independent Symmetries in Exact Graph Coloring
Code optimization and high level synthesis can be posed as constraint satisfaction and optimization problems, such as graph coloring used in register allocation. Graph coloring is...

Solving MAX-r-SAT Above a Tight Lower Bound
We present an exact algorithm that decides, for every fixed r ≥ 2 in time O(m) + 2O(k2 ) whether a given multiset of m clauses of size r admits a truth assignment that satisfi...

Simultaneous placement and scheduling of sensors
We consider the problem of monitoring spatial phenomena, such as road speeds on a highway, using wireless sensors with limited battery life. A central question is to decide where ...

Optimal Inapproximability Results for Max-Cut and Other 2-Variable CSPs?
In this paper we show a reduction from the Unique Games problem to the problem of approximating MAX-CUT to within a factor of GW + , for all > 0; here GW .878567 denotes the a...

Barriers and local minima in energy landscapes of stochastic local search
: A local search algorithm operating on an instance of a Boolean constraint satisfaction problem (in particular, k-SAT) can be viewed as a stochastic process traversing successive ...
