In this paper, we present a general algorithm which gives an uniform view of several state-of-the-art systematic backtracking search algorithms for solving both binary and nonbinary CSP instances. More precisely, this algorithm integrates the most usual or/and sophisticated look-back and look-ahead schemes. By means of this algorithm, our purpose is then to study the interest of backjump-based techniques with respect to conflict-directed variable ordering heuristics.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
