The paper discusses simple functional constraint networks and a value propagation method for program construction. Structural synthesis of programs is described as an example of d...
Deviation is a recent constraint to balance a set of variables with respect to a given mean. We show that the propagators recently introduced are not bound-consistent when the mean...
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 stretch constraint occurs in many rostering problems that arise in the industrial and public service sectors. In this paper we present an efficient algorithm for domain consist...
We show that global constraints on finite domains like alldifferent can be reformulated into answer set programs on which we achieve arc, bound or range consistency. These reform...
