Flow-Based Propagators for the SEQUENCE and Related Global Constraints
We propose new filtering algorithms for the SEQUENCE constraint and some extensions of the SEQUENCE constraint based on network flows. We enforce domain consistency on the SEQUENCE...

Open Constraints in a Boundable World
Open forms of global constraints allow the addition of new variables to an argument during the execution of a constraint program. Such forms are needed for difficult constraint pro...

The Tractability of Global Constraints
Abstract. Constraint propagation is one of the techniques central to the success of constraint programming. Fast algorithms are used to prune the search space either before or duri...

Same-Relation Constraints
The ALLDIFFERENT constraint was one of the first global constraints [17] and it enforces the conjunction of one binary constraint, the not-equal constraint, for every pair of varia...

Global Constraints for Integer and Set Value Precedence
The paper introduces value precedence on integer and set sequences. A useful application of the notion is in breaking symmetries of indistinguishable values, an important class of ...
