This paper describes a hybrid approach to solving large-scale constraint satisfaction and optimization problems. It describes a hybrid algorithm for integer linear programming whic...
We make a number of contributions to the study of the Quantified Constraint Satisfaction Problem (QCSP). The QCSP is an extension of the constraint satisfaction problem that can b...

The distribution of fitness values across a set of states sharply influences the dynamics of evolutionary processes and heuristic search in combinatorial optimization. In this p...
Abstract. Haplotype inference from genotype data is a key computational problem in bioinformatics, since retrieving directly haplotype information from DNA samples is not feasible ...
Boolean matching (BM) is a widely used technique in FPGA resynthesis and architecture evaluation. In this paper we present several improvements to the recently proposed SAT-based ...
