Search techniques for SAT-based Boolean optimization
The last few years have seen significant advances in Boolean satisfiability (SAT) solving. This has lead to the successful deployment of SAT solvers in a wide range of problems in Engineering and Computer Science. In general, most SAT solvers are applied to Boolean decision problems that are expressed in conjunctive normal form (CNF). While this input format is applicable to some engineering ta...
متن کاملParallel Search for Boolean Optimization
The predominance of multicore processors has increased the interest in developing parallel Boolean Satisfiability (SAT) solvers. As a result, more parallel SAT solvers are emerging. Even though parallel approaches are known to boost performance, parallel approaches developed for Boolean optimization are scarce. This paper proposes parallel search algorithms for Boolean optimization and introduc...
متن کاملUsing Lower-Bound Estimates in SAT-Based Pseudo-Boolean Optimization
Linear Pseudo-Boolean constraints offer a much more compact formalism to express significant boolean problems in several areas, ranging from Artificial Intelligence to Electronic Design Automation. This paper proposes a new algorithm for the Pseudo-Boolean Optimization Problem (PBO) which integrates features from recent advances in Boolean Satisfiability (SAT) and classical branch and bound alg...
متن کاملSimple optimization techniques for A*-based search
In this paper, we present two simple optimizations that can reduce the number of priority queue operations for A* and its extensions. Basically, when the optimized search algorithms expand a state, they check whether they will expand a successor of the state next. If so, they do not first insert it into the priority queue and then immediately remove it again. These changes might appear to be tr...
متن کاملSAT-Based Summarization for Boolean Programs
Boolean programs are frequently used to model abstractions of software programs. They have the advantage that reachability properties are decidable, despite the fact that their stack is not bounded. The enabling technique is summarization of procedure calls. Most model checking tools for Boolean programs use BDDs to represent these summaries, allowing for an efficient fix-point detection. Howev...
