Pseudocode No The paper describes algorithms verbally but does not provide structured pseudocode or algorithm blocks.
Open Source Code No The paper mentions 'Alchemy-22' and provides a link (https://code.google.com/p/alchemy-2/), but this refers to a third-party tool used in experiments, not the authors' own implementation code.
Open Datasets No The paper describes problem setups like the 'pigeonhole problem' and 'Advisor domain' which are instantiated, but it does not provide access information (links, DOIs, formal citations with authors/year, or repository names) for publicly available datasets.
Dataset Splits No The paper defines the problem instances by parameters such as #Pigeon, #Prof, #Student, but it does not specify explicit training, validation, or test dataset splits (e.g., percentages, sample counts, or references to predefined splits).
Hardware Specification Yes All the experiments were run on a system with a 2.2GHz Xeon processor and 62GB of memory.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions using 'Mini Max SAT [15]', 'Open-WBO [19]', 'Sat4j [17]', 'Rock It [26]', 'PTP algorithm [14]', and 'Max Walk SAT algorithm used by Alchemy-22', but does not specify version numbers for these software components or libraries.
Experiment Setup Yes The MWS runs were allowed a varying number of flips and up to five restarts. For MWS, the reported results are with equal probability (0.5) of making a random or a greedy move; other settings were tried, and the results were similar. Both PTP and Rock It were run using the default setting of their parameters.
