Solving Sparse Random Instances of Max Cut and Max 2-CSP in Linear Expected Time
Abstract. We show that a maximum cut of a random graph below the giantcomponent threshold can be found in linear space and linear expected time by a simple algorithm. In fact, the ...

Satisfying Test Preconditions through Guided Object Selection
—A random testing strategy can be effective at finding faults, but may leave some routines entirely untested if it never gets to call them on objects satisfying their preconditi...

Artificial immune system for solving generalized geometric problems: a preliminary results
Generalized geometric programming (GGP) is an optimization method in which the objective function and constraints are nonconvex functions. Thus, a GGP problem includes multiple lo...

Conditional and Composite Constraints with Preferences
Preferences in constraint problems are common but significant in many real world applications. In this paper, we extend our conditional and composite CSP (CCCSP) framework, managi...

Optimizing with Constraints: A Case Study in Scheduling Maintenance of Electric Power Units
A well-studied problem in the electric power industry is that of optimally scheduling preventative maintenance of power generating units within a power plant. We show how these pr...
