Wikipedia article: Ariadne's thread

Ariadne's Thread, named for the legend of Ariadne, is the name used for a method to solve a complex problem, such as a Sudoku puzzle, by exploring possible alternatives, backtracking when an error is encountered. The process ends when either no more alternatives are available, or when a valid solution is found. This solving technique assumes that the Sudoku has a unique solution.
