    Abstract

    Planning-specific heuristics for SAT have recently been shown to produce planners that match best earlier ones that use other search methods, including the until now dominant heuristic state-space search. The heuristics are simple and natural, and enforce pure depth-first search with backward chaining in the standard conflict-directed clause learning (CDCL) framework. In this work we consider alternatives to pure depth-first search, and show that carefully chosen randomized search order, which is not strictly depth-first, allows to leverage the intrinsic strengths of CDCL better, and will lead to a planner that clearly outperforms existing planners.
