Since it is an important variant of the satisfiability problem, XSAT has also been studied heavily and has seen numerous improvements to the development of its exact algorithms over the years. ...
The Exact Satisfiability problem, XSAT, is defined as the problem of finding a satisfying assignment to a formula φ in CNF such that exactly one literal in each clause is assigned to be "1" and the other ...
One such important variant is the Exact Satisfiability problem, XSAT, where it asks if one can find a satisfying assignment such that exactly one of the literal in each clause is assigned the value "1" ...
