Solving Large-Scale Nonlinear Programming Problems by Constraint Partitioning
Abstract. In this paper, we present a constraint-partitioning approach for finding local optimal solutions of large-scale mixed-integer nonlinear programming problems (MINLPs). Ba...

Tree Decomposition with Applications to Constraint Processing
This paper concerns the task of removing redundant information from a given knowledge base, and restructuring it in the form of a tree, so as to admit efficient problem solving ro...

Structural Patterns Heuristics via Fork Decomposition
We consider a generalization of the PDB homomorphism abstractions to what is called "structural patterns". The bais in abstracting the problem in hand into provably trac...

Hypertree Decompositions: Structure, Algorithms, and Applications
We review the concepts of hypertree decomposition and hypertree width from a graph theoretical perspective and report on a number of recent results related to these concepts. We al...

A Decomposition Technique for Max-CSP
The objective of the Maximal Constraint Satisfaction Problem (Max-CSP) is to find an instantiation which minimizes the number of constraint violations in a constraint network. In t...
