This paper describes an exact symbolic formulation of resource-constrained scheduling which allows speculative operation execution in arbitrary forward-branching control/data paths. The technique provides a closed-form solution set in which all satisfying schedules are encapsulated in a compressed OBDD-based representation. An iterative construction method is presented along with benchmark results. The experiments demonstrate the ability of the proposed technique to efficiently extract parallelism not explicitly specified in the input description.
