- Directed acyclic graph
- Efficient algorithm
- Induced width of an ordering (check your textbook)
- Least-domain heuristic
- Maximum cardinality heuristic
- Min-conflict heuristic

Ordering Algorithms
For each of the following algorithms, please explain:
(1) The goal of the algorithm and (2) How it operates (informally and in words):
- Max Cardinality ordering algorithm (Dechter Fig 4.3)
- Min-Fill algorithm (Dechter Fig 4.4)
- Width algorithm of Freuder (Dechter 4.2)
Do not forget to list your references.
