Their general satisfiability problem is known to be NP-complete. Here we identify emphnormal dominance constraints, a natural fragment whose satisfiability problem we show to be in polynomial time. We present a quadratic satisfiability algorithm and use it in another algorithm that enumerates solutions efficiently. Our result is useful for various applications of dominance constraints and related formalisms.}, ANNOTE = {COLIURL : Koller:2000:PTF.pdf Koller:2000:PTF.ps} }
