On the Minimality and Decomposability of Constraint Networks
Constraint networks have been shown to be useful in formulating such diverse problems as scene labeling, natural language parsing, and temporal reasoning. Given a constraint netwo...

On the Inherent Level of Local Consistency in Constraint Networks
We present a new property called constraint looseness and show how it can be used to estimate the level of local consistency of a binary constraint network. Speci cally, we presen...

Local Consistency for Ternary Numeric Constraints
We consider algorithms of the Waltz type for computing local consistency (also called arcconsistency) for constraints over numeric domains. Many commonlyused propagationrules do n...

Globally Consistent Dynamic Reconfiguration
The evolution of distributed applications to reflect structural changes or to adapt to specific conditions of the run-time environment is a difficult issue especially if continuou...

Consistency and Set Intersection
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...

A Property of Path Inverse Consistency Leading to an Optimal PIC Algorithm
Abstract. In constraint networks, the efficiency of a search algorithm is strongly related to the local consistency maintained during search. For a long time, it has been consider...

Causal Closure for MSC Languages
Abstract. Message sequence charts (MSCs) are commonly used to specify interactions between agents in communicating systems. Their visual nature makes them attractive for describing...

Issues on Decentralized Consistency Checking of Multi-lateral Collaborations
Decentralized consistency checking of multi-lateral collaborations is based on propagating local information to trading partners until a fixed point has been reached. However, wh...

Qualitative Temporal and Spatial Reasoning Revisited
Abstract. Establishing local consistency is one of the main algorithmic techniques in temporal and spatial reasoning. In this area, one of the central questions for the various pro...
