Analyzing Reformulation Performance in Core-Guided MaxSAT Solving

Authors: André Schidler and Stefan Szeider

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 341, 28th International Conference on Theory and Applications of Satisfiability Testing (SAT 2025)


Abstract
Core-guided algorithms like OLL are among the best methods for solving the Maximum Satisfiability problem (MaxSAT). Although some performance characteristics of OLL have been studied, a comprehensive experimental analysis of its reformulation behavior is still missing. In this paper, we present a large-scale study on how different reformulations of a MaxSAT instance produced by OLL affect solver performance. By representing these reformulations as a directed acyclic graph (DAG), we isolate the impact of structural features - such as the size and interconnectivity of unsatisfiable cores - on solver runtime. Our extensive experimental evaluation of over 600k solver runs reveals clear correlations between DAG properties and performance outcomes. These results suggest a new avenue for designing heuristics that steer the solver toward more tractable reformulations. All OLL DAGs and performance data from our experiments are publicly available to foster further research.

The Multi-Domain Frame Packing Problem for CAN-FD

Authors: Prachi Joshi, Haibo Zeng, Unmesh D. Bordoloi, Soheil Samii, S. S. Ravi, and Sandeep K. Shukla

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 76, 29th Euromicro Conference on Real-Time Systems (ECRTS 2017)


Abstract
The Controller Area Network with Flexible Data-Rate (CAN-FD) is a new communication protocol to meet the bandwidth requirements for the constantly growing volume of data exchanged in modern vehicles. The problem of frame packing for CAN-FD, as studied in the literature, assumes a single sub-system where one CAN-FD bus serves as the communication medium among several Electronic Control Units (ECUs). Modern automotive electronic systems, on the other hand, consist of several sub-systems, each facilitating a certain functional domain such as powertrain, chassis and suspension. A substantial fraction of all signals is exchanged across sub-systems. In this work, we study the frame packing problem for CAN-FD with multiple sub-systems, and propose a two-stage optimization framework. In the first stage, we pack the signals into frames with the objective of minimizing the bandwidth utilization. In the second stage, we extend Audsley's algorithm to assign priorities/identifiers to the frames. In case the resulting solution is not schedulable, our framework provides a potential repacking method. We propose two solution approaches: (a) an Integer Linear Programming (ILP) formulation that provides an optimal solution but is computationally expensive for industrial-size problems; and (b) a greedy heuristic that scales well and provides solutions that are comparable to optimal solutions. Experimental results show the efficiency of our optimization framework in achieving feasible solutions with low bandwidth utilization. The results also show a significant improvement over the case when there is no cross-domain consideration (as in prior work).
