Beating a Random Assignment : Approximating Constraint Satisfaction Problems

An instance of a Boolean constraint satisfaction problem, CSP, consists of a set of constraints acting over a set of Boolean variables. The objective is to find an assignment to the variables that satisfies all the constraints. In the maximization version, Max CSP, each constraint has a weight and t...
