We describe some new propagators for breaking symmetries in constraint satisfaction problems. We also introduce symmetry breaking constraints to deal with symmetries acting simulta...
The numerical approach to solving geometric constraint problems is indispensable for building a practical CAD system. The most commonly-used numerical method is the Newton
We present a method for improved release of whole-hand virtual grasps. It addresses the problem of objects “sticking” during release after the user’s (real) fingers interpen...
In recent years, many works have been carried out to solve over-constrained problems, and more speci cally the Maximal Constraint Satisfaction Problem (Max-CSP), where the goal is ...
We present a hierarchical distributed communication and control architecture for Smart Grids. The proposed topology consists of multiple layers to allow for robust and flexible d...
