While preparing a book on combinatorial algorithms, I felt a strong need for a new technical term, a word which is essentially a one-sided version of polynomial complete. A great many problems of practical interest have the property that they are at least as difficult to solve in polynomial time as those of the Cook-Karp class KP. I needed an adjective to convey such a degree of difficulty, both formally and informally; and since the range of practical applications is so broad, I felt it would…
Internal Differentiation, Comparative Variability, Structural Morphology, Normative Aspect Of Prognostication Of Ipse Dixit Np Hard Problems-A Totalistic Paradigmatic Statement
• Computer Science
• 2012
A progressive comparable to Bank's General Ledger is developed, and a General Theory of all the problems under the head of NP hard problems is called, which is a journey to find the final balance which probably never ends like an account never closes.

This research experimentally investigated the performance gains of extending the most recently developed SAT dynamic Initial Weight assignment technique (InitWeight) to handle theMaxSAT problems and showed that the InitWeight technique could be extended to handling partial MaxSAT with minor modifications.
THE GUIDE TO NP-COMPLETENESS IS 40 YEARS OLD: AN HOMAGE TO DAVID S. JOHNSON
• Computer Science
• 2020
The popularity of the NP-completeness concept and of its guidebook increased when the P versus NP problem was selected by the Clay Mathematics Institute as one of the seven Millennium Problems to motivate research on important classic dates.
Cognition and intractability: a guide to classical and parameterized complexity analysis
