Enhancements of Branch and Bound Methods for the Maximal Constraint Satisfaction Problem
Two methods are described for enhancing performance of branch and bound methods for overconstrained CSPS. These methods improve either the upper or lower bound, respectively, duri...

Greedy colorings for the binary paintshop problem
Cars have to be painted in two colors in a sequence where each car occurs twice; assign the two colors to the two occurrences of each car so as to minimize the number of color chan...

A New Approach to the Rectilinear Steiner Tree Problem
: We discuss a new approach to constructing the rectilinear Steiner tree (RST) of a given set of points in the plane, starting from a minimum spanning tree (MST). The main idea in ...

Saturation Effects in Testing of Formal Models
Formal analysis of software is a powerful analysis tool, but can be too costly. Random search of formal models can reduce that cost, but is theoretically incomplete. However, rand...
