Abstract Subtyping for Asynchronous Multiparty Sessions

Authors: Laura Bocchi, Andy King, Maurizio Murgia, and Simon Thompson

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 348, 36th International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR 2025)

Abstract
Session subtyping answers the question of whether a program in a communicating system can be safely substituted for another, when their communication behaviour is described by session types. Asynchronous session subtyping is undecidable, even for two participants, hence the interest in sound, but incomplete, subtyping algorithms. Asynchronous multiparty subtyping can be formulated by decomposing session types into single input and output types which preclude, respectively, external and internal choice. This paper shows how abstract interpretation can sit atop this approach and how it leads to an algorithm that can prove subtyping for intricate communication patterns.

Modeling and Explaining an Industrial Workforce Allocation and Scheduling Problem

Authors: Ignace Bleukx, Ryma Boumazouza, Tias Guns, Nadine Laage, and Guillaume Poveda

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 340, 31st International Conference on Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming (CP 2025)

Abstract
We present an industrial case on workforce allocation and scheduling in the aircraft manufacturing industry, where available teams need to be assigned to logistical operations. This application presents several challenges such as the scale of the problem, the need for fair workload distribution, and the need for methods for mitigating unforeseen disruptions due to technical malfunctions or incompatible weather conditions. We compare different Constraint Programming (CP) models for the allocation and scheduling problems, with extra focus on modeling the workload balancing component. Additionally, we investigate different techniques for explaining infeasibility of a disrupted schedule, such as conflict computation using Minimal Unsatisfiable Subsets (MUSes) and feasibility restoration using Minimal Correction Subsets (MCSes) or constraint relaxations. Our experimental results show that by using appropriate modeling techniques, the problem can be solved in reasonable time, thereby producing fair schedules. Additionally, we show how invalidated schedules can be explained and restored efficiently to help human operators in solving disruptions to the schedule.

Symmetric Core Learning for Pseudo-Boolean Optimization by Implicit Hitting Sets

Authors: Hannes Ihalainen, Jeremias Berg, Matti Järvisalo, and Bart Bogaerts

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 340, 31st International Conference on Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming (CP 2025)

Abstract
We propose symmetric core learning (SCL) as a novel approach to making the implicit hitting set approach (IHS) to constraint optimization more symmetry-aware. SCL has the potential of significantly reducing the number of iterations and, in particular, the number of calls to an NP decision solver for extracting individual unsatisfiable cores. As the technique is focused on generating symmetric cores to the hitting set component of IHS, SCL is generally applicable in IHS-style search for essentially any constraint optimization paradigm. In this work, we focus in particular on integrating SCL to IHS for pseudo-Boolean optimization (PBO), as earlier proposed static symmetry breaking through lex-leader constraints generated before search turns out to often degrade the performance of the IHS approach to PBO. In contrast, we show that SCL can improve the runtime performance of a state-of-the-art IHS approach to PBO and generally does not impose significant overhead in terms of runtime performance.

Streamlining Distributed SAT Solver Design

Authors: Dominik Schreiber, Niccolò Rigi-Luperti, and Armin Biere

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

Abstract
Distributed clause-sharing SAT solvers have recently been established as powerful automated reasoning tools that can conquer previously infeasible instances. A common design of distributed SAT solvers is to run many off-the-shelf sequential solvers in parallel, employ some diversification (e.g., restart intervals or decision orders), and share conflict clauses among the solver threads. This approach, naïvely, adopts all best practices of sequential solver design for distributed solving, where these practices may be less useful or even actively detrimental. In this work we diagnose such shortcomings in the state-of-the-art system MallobSat and propose first effective mitigations. In particular, we replace the redundant pre- and inprocessing at all threads with single-core preprocessing that runs next to the parallel search, remove LBD values from the clause-sharing operation, and slim down solver diversification to very few lightweight and uniform methods. Experimental evaluations on up to 3072 cores (64 nodes) confirm that our measures improve performance while also drastically simplifying the SAT solving program that is run in parallel.

Repairing Databases over Metric Spaces with Coincidence Constraints

Authors: Youri Kaminsky, Benny Kimelfeld, Ester Livshits, Felix Naumann, and David Wajc

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 328, 28th International Conference on Database Theory (ICDT 2025)

Abstract
Datasets often contain values that naturally reside in a metric space: numbers, strings, geographical locations, machine-learned embeddings in a vector space, and so on. We study the computational complexity of repairing inconsistent databases that violate integrity constraints, where the database values belong to an underlying metric space. The goal is to update the database values to retain consistency while minimizing the total distance between the original values and the repaired ones. We consider what we refer to as coincidence constraints, which include unary key constraints, inclusion constraints, foreign keys, and generally any restriction on the relationship between the numbers of cells of different labels (attributes) coinciding in a single value, for a fixed attribute set. We begin by showing that the problem is APX-hard for general metric spaces. We then present an algorithm solving the problem optimally for tree metrics, which generalize both the line metric (i.e., where repaired values are numbers) and the discrete metric (i.e., where we simply count the number of changed values). Combining our algorithm for tree metrics and a classic result on probabilistic tree embeddings, we design a (high probability) logarithmic-ratio approximation for general metrics. We also study the variant of the problem where we limit the allowed change of each individual value. In this variant, it is already NP-complete to decide the existence of any legal repair for a general metric, and we present a polynomial-time repairing algorithm for the case of a line metric.

Modeling Machine Learning and Data Mining Problems with FO(·)

Authors: Hendrik Blockeel, Bart Bogaerts, Maurice Bruynooghe, Broes De Cat, Stef De Pooter, Marc Denecker, Anthony Labarre, Jan Ramon, and Sicco Verwer

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 17, Technical Communications of the 28th International Conference on Logic Programming (ICLP'12) (2012)

Abstract
This paper reports on the use of the FO(·) language and the IDP framework for modeling and solving some machine learning and data mining tasks. The core component of a model in the IDP framework is an FO(·) theory consisting of formulas in first order logic and definitions; the latter are basically logic programs where clause bodies can have arbitrary first order formulas. Hence, it is a small step for a well-versed computer scientist to start modeling. We describe some models resulting from the collaboration between IDP experts and domain experts solving machine learning and data mining tasks. A first task is in the domain of stemmatology, a domain of philology concerned with the relationship between surviving variant versions of text. A second task is about a somewhat similar problem within biology where phylogenetic trees are used to represent the evolution of species. A third and final task is about learning a minimal automaton consistent with a given set of strings. For each task, we introduce the problem, present the IDP code and report on some experiments.
