Abstract. We present a theoretical study on the idea of using mathematical programming relaxations for filtering binary constraint satisfaction problems. We introduce the consisten...

Recently, a strong link has been discovered between supermodularity on lattices and tractability of optimization problems known as maximum constraint satisfaction problems. The pre...
A team of constraint agents with diverse viewpoints canfind a solution to a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) whenthe individual agents have an incomplete viewof the problem.I...
We consider the problem of encoding Boolean cardinality constraints in conjunctive normal form (CNF). Boolean cardinality constraints are formulae expressing that at most (resp. at...
A number of diagnostic and optimisation problems in Electronics Computer Aided Design have usually been handled either by specific tools or by mapping them into a general problem s...
