This paper examines the relative performance of additive and multiplicative clause weighting schemes for propositional satisfiability testing. Starting with one of the most recent...

Many real-world problems are over-constrained and require search techniques adapted to optimising cost functions rather than searching for consistency. This makes the MAX-SAT probl...
Many current local search algorithms for SAT fall into one of two classes. Random walk algorithms such as Walksat/SKC, Novelty+ and HWSAT are very successful but can be trapped for...
In recent years, dynamic local search (DLS) clause weighting algorithms have emerged as the local search state-of-the-art for solving propositional satisfiability problems. However...

In this paper we describe a stochastic local search (SLS) procedure for finding satisfying models of satisfiable propositional formulae. This new algorithm, gNovelty+ , draws on th...
