     CSP look-back techniques (CBJ, learning), not widely used in
     existing SAT algorithms, turn out to be indispensable for solving
     instances which are "exceptionally hard". A new procedure
     we define generates such instances consistently. <br>

     by	restricting constraint graph structure, extensive use of space may
     be of limited benefit. <br> <b> <!WA15><!WA15><!WA15><!WA15><!WA15><!WA15><a href="http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/bayardo/ps/ijcai95.ps.Z"> ijcai95.ps.Z</a>
