چکیده

Using T50 Monte Carlo simulation, we study the relaxation of graph coloring ~K-COL! and satisfiability ~K-SAT!, two hard problems that have recently been shown to possess a phase transition in solvability as a parameter is varied. A change from exponentially fast to power law relaxation, and a transition to freezing behavior are found. These changes take place for smaller values of the parameter than the solvability transition. Results for the coloring problem for colorable and clustered graphs and for the fraction of persistent spins for satisfiability are also presented. @S1063-651X~99!09904-3#

Parallel Jobs Scheduling with a Specific Due Date: Asemi-definite Relaxation-based Algorithm

This paper considers a different version of the parallel machines scheduling problem in which the parallel jobs simultaneously requirea pre-specifiedjob-dependent number of machines when being processed.This relaxation departs from one of the classic scheduling assumptions. While the analytical conditions can be easily statedfor some simple models, a graph model approach is required when confli...

A practical algorithm for [r, s, t]-coloring of graph

Coloring graphs is one of important and frequently used topics in diverse sciences. In the majority of the articles, it is intended to find a proper bound for vertex coloring, edge coloring or total coloring in the graph. Although it is important to find a proper algorithm for graph coloring, it is hard and time-consuming too. In this paper, a new algorithm for vertex coloring, edge coloring an...

Extremal Colorings and Extremal Satisfiability

Combinatorial problems are often easy to state and hard to solve. A whole bunch of graph coloring problems falls into this class as well as the satisfiability problem. The classical coloring problems consider colorings of objects such that two objects which are in a relation receive different colors, e.g., proper vertex-colorings, proper edge-colorings, or proper face-colorings of plane graphs....

A New Met

We introduce a greedy local search procedure called GSAT for solving propositional satisfiability problems. Our experiments show that this procedure can be used to solve hard, randomly generated problems that are an order of magnitude larger than those that can be handled by more traditional approaches such as the Davis-Putnam procedure or resolution. We also show that GSAT can solve structured...
