A subgraph T of a digraph D is an out-branching if T is an oriented spanning tree with only one vertex of in-degree zero (called the root). The vertices of T of out-degree zero ar...

We consider the budget-constrained bidding optimization problem for sponsored search auctions, and model it as an online (multiple-choice) knapsack problem. We design both determi...

This paper deals with the challenging problem of counting the number of solutions of a CSP, denoted #CSP. Recent progress have been made using search methods, such as BTD [15], whi...
Abstract. Iterated schemata allow to define infinite languages of propositional formulae through formulae patterns. Formally, schemata extend propositional logic with new (generali...

We use a local search method we term Large Neighbourhood Search (LNS) for solving vehicle routing problems. LNS meshes well with constraint programming technology and is analogous...
