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

Hyper-heuristics (HHs) are heuristics that work with an arbitrary set of search operators or algorithms and combine these algorithms adaptively to achieve a better performance tha...
Reduced Ordered Binary Decision Diagrams (BDDs) are a data structure for representation and manipulation of Boolean functions which are frequently used in VLSI Design Automation. ...
A new stochastic method for locating the global minimum of a multidimensional function inside a rectangular hyperbox is presented. A sampling technique is employed that makes use ...
The critical functionality of many software applications relies on code that performs mathematically complex computations. However, such code is often difficult to test owing to t...
