Abstract

In this chapter we introduce a modeling framework based on dynamic programming to compile exact decision diagrams. We describe how dynamic programming models can be used in a top-down compilation method to construct exact decision diagrams. We also present an alternative compilation method based on constraint separation. We illustrate our framework on a number of classical combinatorial optimization problems: maximum independent set, set covering, set packing, single machine scheduling, maximum cut, and maximum 2-satisfiability.
