A non-binary constraint ordering heuristic for constraint satisfaction problems
Abstract Nowadays many real problems can be modelled as Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs). A search algorithm for constraint programming requires an order in which variables ...

In Search of the Best Constraint Satisfaction Search
We present the results of an empirical study of several constraint satisfaction search algorithms and heuristics. Using a random problem generator that allows us to create instanc...

Conditional Lexicographic Orders in Constraint Satisfaction Problems
The lexicographically-ordered CSP ("lexicographic CSP" for short) combines a simple representation of preferences with the feasibility constraints of ordinary CSPs. Prefe...

Dynamic Variable Ordering in CSPs
Abstract. We investigate the dynamic variable ordering (DVO) technique commonly used in conjunction with tree-search algorithms for solving constraint satisfaction problems. We fi...

Heavy-Tailed Phenomena in Satisfiability and Constraint Satisfaction Problems
We study the runtime distributions of backtrack procedures for propositional satisfiability and constraint satisfaction. Such procedures often exhibit a large variability in perfor...
