High-arity interactions, polyhedral relaxations, and cutting plane algorithm for soft constraint optimisation (MAP-MRF)
LP relaxation approach to soft constraint optimisation (i.e. MAP-MRF) has been mostly considered only for binary problems. We present its generalisation to n-ary problems, includi...

Tractable Symmetry Breaking Using Restricted Search Trees
We present a new conceptual abstraction in symmetry breaking – the GE-tree. The construction and traversal of a GE-tree breaks all symmetries in any constraint satisfaction or si...

Broadcasting on large scale heterogeneous platforms under the bounded multi-port model
We consider the problem of broadcasting a large message in a large scale distributed platform. The message must be sent from a source node, with the help of the receiving peers whi...

On the Approximability of Average Completion Time Scheduling under Precedence Constraints
Abstract. We consider the scheduling problem of minimizing the average weighted job completion time on a single machine under precedence constraints. We show that this problem with...

Soft arc consistency revisited
The Valued Constraint Satisfaction Problem (VCSP) is a generic optimization problem defined by a network of local cost functions defined over discrete variables. It has applicatio...
