Abstract

It is well-known that SAT-solvers are remarkably efficient. However, little is known as to why this is the case. In this book we have tried to answer this question by investigating the connections between constraint satisfaction and Boolean satisfiability problems.

“Poirot,” I said. “I have been thinking.”

“An admirable exercise my friend. Continue it.”
