We present a new branch and bound algorithm for Max-SAT which incorporates original lazy data structures, a new variable selection heuristics and a lower bound of better quality. W...
Instances of the Boolean satisfiability problem (SAT) arise in many areas of circuit design and verification. These instances are typically constructed from some human-designed ar...

Abstract. Work by Kilby, Slaney, Thiebaux and Walsh [1] showed that the backdoors and backbones of unstructured Random 3SAT instances are largely disjoint. In this work we extend t...
In this paper, a new heuristic that can be grafted to many of the most e cient branching strategies for Davis and Putnam procedures for SAT is described. This heuristic gives a hig...
This paper presents a verification technique for functional comparison of large combinational circuits using a novel combination of known approaches. The idea is based on a tight...
