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...
Many combinatorial (optimisation) problems have natural models based on, or including, set variables and set constraints. This was already known to the constraint programming commu...
For a mathematical program with complementarity constraints (MPCC), we propose an active-set Newton method, which has the property of local quadratic convergence under the MPCC lin...
The presence of uncertainty in the real world makes robustness to be a desired property of solutions to constraint satisfaction problems. Roughly speaking, a solution is robust if...
Abstract. This paper proposes to promote constraints to first-class status. In contrast to constraint propagation, which performs inference on values of variables, first-class co...
