Compilers employ system models, sometimes implicitly, to make code optimization decisions. These models are analytic; they reflect their implementor’s understanding and beliefs ...
We propose an improved restart strategy for randomized backtrack search, and evaluate its performance by comparing to other heuristic and stochastic search techniques for solving r...
