Abstract. Methods exploiting problem symmetries have been very successful in several areas including constraint programming and SAT solving. We here recast a technique to enhance t...
Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD) is a data analysis process which, in contrast to conventional data analysis, automatically generates and evaluates very many hypotheses, deal...
Abstract. Due to its prominence in artificial intelligence and theoretical computer science, the propositional satisfiability problem (SAT) has received considerable attention in...
In this paper we consider the dictionary problem in a message-passing distributed environment. We introduce a new version, based on AVL-trees, of distributed search trees, the fir...
The basic idea to defend in this paper is that an adequate perception of the search space, sacrificing most of the precision, can paradoxically accelerate the discovery of the mo...
