Local Consistency - Directional Consistency

Directional Consistency

Directional consistency is the variant of arc, path, and -consistency tailored for being used by an algorithm that assigns values to variables following a given order of variables. They are similar to their non-directional counterparts, but only require that a consistent assignment to some variables can be consistently extended to another variable that is greater than them according to the order.

Famous quotes containing the word consistency:

    People who love only once in their lives are ... shallow people. What they call their loyalty, and their fidelity, I call either the lethargy of custom or their lack of imagination. Faithfulness is to the emotional life what consistency is to the life of the intellect—simply a confession of failures.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
