Quantified Positive Temporal Constraints
Abstract. A positive temporal template (or a positive temporal constraint language) is a relational structure whose relations can be defined over countable dense linear order witho...

Probabilistically Estimating Backbones and Variable Bias: Experimental Overview
Backbone variables have the same assignment in all solutions to a given constraint satisfaction problem; more generally, bias represents the proportion of solutions that assign a v...

A Branch and Bound Algorithm for Numerical MAX-CSP
The Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) framework allows users to define problems in a declarative way, quite independently from the solving process. However, when the problem i...

Maintaining Arc-Consistency over Mutex Relations in Planning Graphs during Search
We deal with the search process of the GraphPlan algorithm in this paper. We concentrate on a problem of finding supports for a sub-goal which arises during the search. We model t...

Constraint-Based Local Search for the Automatic Generation of Architectural Tests
Abstract. This paper considers the automatic generation of architectural tests (ATGP), a fundamental problem in processor validation. ATGPs are complex conditional constraint satis...

Parallel and distributed algorithms for finite constraint satisfaction problems
This paper develops two new algorithms for solving a finite constraint satisfaction problem (FCSP) in parallel. In particular, we give a parallel algorithm for the EREW PRAM model...

: A Bottom-Up Approach for Solving Quantified CSPs
Abstract. Thanks to its extended expressiveness, the quantified constraint satisfaction problem (QCSP) can be used to model problems that are difficult to express in the standard C...

Decomposition of Multi-operator Queries on Semiring-Based Graphical Models
Abstract. In the last decades, the Satisfiability and Constraint Satisfaction Problem frameworks were extended to integrate aspects such as uncertainties, partial observabilities, ...

A Global Constraint for Graph Isomorphism Problems
The graph isomorphism problem consists in deciding if two given graphs have an identical structure. This problem can be modeled as a constraint satisfaction problem in a very strai...

Unbiased Statistics of a Constraint Satisfaction Problem - a Controlled-Bias Generator
: We show that estimating the complexity (mean and distribution) of the instances of a fixed size Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) can be very hard. We deal with the main two ...
