Dualities for Constraint Satisfaction Problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In a nutshell, a duality for a constraint satisfaction problem equates the existence of one homomorphism to the non-existence of other homomorphisms. In this survey paper, we give an overview of logical, combinatorial, and algebraic aspects of the following forms of duality for constraint satisfaction problems: finite duality, bounded pathwidth duality,

Constraint Satisfaction Problems on Intervals and Lengths [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics, 2004
Summary: We study interval-valued Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs), in which the aim is to find an assignment of intervals to a given set of variables subject to constraints on the relative positions of intervals. Many well-known problems such as INTERVAL GRAPH RECOGNITION and INTERVAL SATISFIABILITY can be considered as examples of such CSPs ...

Parameterized Constraint Satisfaction Problems: a Survey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We consider constraint satisfaction problems parameterized above or below guaranteed values. One example is MaxSat parameterized above m/2: given a CNF formula F with m clauses, decide whether there is a truth assignment that satisfies at least m/2 + k ...

Constraint Solving Approach to Schedulability Analysis in Real-Time Systems

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
In real-time systems, the satisfaction of real-time properties is as important as the correct behavior of the function. There are many safety-critical systems among the real-time systems, and thus, the satisfaction of real-time properties is directly ...

Google vs IBM: A Constraint Solving Challenge on the Job-Shop Scheduling Problem [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2019
The job-shop scheduling is one of the most studied optimization problems from the dawn of computer era to the present day. Its combinatorial nature makes it easily expressible as a constraint satisfaction problem.

On amenability of constraint satisfaction problems

open access: yesCoRR, 2020
Recent results show that a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) defined over rational numbers with their natural ordering has a solution if and only if it has a definable solution. The proof uses advanced results from topology and modern model theory. The aim of this paper is threefold.

Discrete Temporal Constraint Satisfaction Problems [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the ACM, 2018
A discrete temporal constraint satisfaction problem is a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) over the set of integers whose constraint language consists of relations that are first-order definable over the order of the integers.

A Novel Strategy of Combining Variable Ordering Heuristics for Constraint Satisfaction Problems

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
Variable ordering heuristic plays a central role in solving constraint satisfaction problems. Many heuristics have been proposed and well-studied.

Independent Constraint Satisfaction and its Application to Sewerage System Control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Most of real world problems contain complex and various constraints, and this goes for the sewerage system control problem, our target. For handling them, the penalty depending on the degree of violation is often used.
