gDMC: A Generic Distributed Model Counting Framework via Work-Stealing

摘要

Propositional Model Counting (#SAT) is essential for probabilistic reasoning but faces scalability limits on single cores. Existing distributed approaches struggle with high initialization overheads (static decomposition) or rigid architecture. We propose a novel, generic framework for distributed exact model counting. Leveraging C++ templates, our architecture decouples parallel orchestration from solving logic, enabling state-of-the-art solvers to be parallelized with minimal modification. We implement an adaptive work-stealing strategy that ensures effective load balancing. Experiments on competition benchmarks show that our approach achieves near-linear scalability and significantly outperforms existing distributed solvers.
