In this paper, we show that there is a close relation between consistency in a constraint network and set intersection. A proof schema is provided as a generic way to obtain consi...
We propose a new framework to study properties of consistency in a Constraint Network from the perspective of properties of set intersection. Our framework comes with a proof sche...
We have started a systematic study of global constraints on set and multiset variables. We consider here disjoint, partition, and intersection constraints in conjunction with cardi...
This paper studies constraint satisfaction over connected row-convex (CRC) constraints. It shows that CRC constraints are closed under composition, intersection, and transposition...

It is known that a tree convex network is globally consistent if it is path consistent. However, if a tree convex network is not path consistent, enforcing path consistency on it ...
