متن کاملAn early sign of satisfiability
This note considers checking satisfiability of sets of propositional clauses (SAT instances). It shows that unipolar sets of clauses (containing no positive or no negative clauses) provide an early sign of satisfiability of SAT instances before all the clauses become satisfied in the course of solving SAT problems. At this sign the processing can be terminated by unipolar set termination, UST t...

The sonographic appearance resembled "lasso". The prenatal follow-up was uneventful, with no demonstration of tethered cord. Clinical, neurological and radiological examinations following delivery and at ...
