Abstract. In this paper we present a novel approach to solving Constraint Satisfaction Problems whose constraint graphs are highly clustered and the graph of clusters is close to b...
A constraint satisfaction problem, or CSP, can be reformulated as an integer linear programming problem. The reformulated problem can be solved via polynomial multiplication. If t...
In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for enforcing relational consistency on every set of k constraints of a finite Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP). This algorithm ope...

Using information from failures to guide subsequent search is an important technique for solving combinatorial problems in domains such as boolean satisfiability (SAT) and constr...
This paper describes a hybrid approach to solving large-scale constraint satisfaction and optimization problems. It describes a hybrid algorithm for integer linear programming whic...
