Our models involve α frequency cells and β run cells with prescribed quotas and an additional γ slack cells without quotas. For any given and , in our Model I we determine the waiting time until at least frequency cells and at least run cells reach their quotas. For any given τ ≤ α + β, in our Model II we determine the waiting time until τ cells reach their quotas. Computer algorithms are developed to calculate the distributions, expectations and standard deviations of the waiting time random variables of the two models.

In this paper we apply variable ordering heuristics and integrate standard dependency schemes in QCSP solvers. The technique can help to decide the next variable to be assigned in QCSP solving. We also introduce a new factor into the variable ordering heuristics: a variable's dep is the number of variables depending on it. This factor represents the probability of getting more candidates for the next variable to be assigned. Experimental results show that variable ordering heuristics with standard dependency schemes and the new factor dep can improve the performance of QCSP solvers.展开更多
