Constraint-Based Local Search (CBLS) is a technology used to solve computationally hard optimisation problems. A model written in a solver-independent modelling language needs to be processed before it can be solved by a CBLS solver. In this processing step, it is necessary to identify invariants and create an invariant structure. How to best obtain such a structure, or even how to identify a good structure, is not clear. The purpose of this project is to develop a framework for evaluating invariant structures and structure identification schemes. To do this, we introduce a set of metrics, which are also evaluated. The evaluation shows that these metrics are useful for evaluating invariant structures and structure identification schemes. We introduce a notion of optimal invariant structures and show that these can in many cases be produced by simple structure identification schemes. Finally, we present a strategy that improves on these schemes and yields optimal invariant structures in even more cases.
