Abstract:Many combinatorial optimization problems entail a number of hierarchically dependent optimization problems. An often used solution is to associate a suitably large cost with each individual optimization problem, such that the solution of the resulting aggregated optimization problem solves the original set of hierarchically dependent optimization problems. This paper starts by studying the package upgradeability problem in software distributions. Straightforward solutions based on Maximum Satisfiability (MaxSA… Show more
