One of the critical problems in the call center industries is the staffing problem since they must face variable demands and because staff costs represent a major part of the cost...
Abstract. In this paper, we consider two particular problems of directed graph matching. The first problem concerns graphs with nodes that have been subdivided into classes of di...
The Valued Constraint Satisfaction Problem (VCSP) is a general framework encompassing many optimisation problems. We discuss precisely what it means for a problem to be modelled in...
- In this article, we present an algorithm which is capable of transforming a gridded dogleg channel routing problem into a constraint programming (CP) problem. The transformed CP ...

We present new techniques for explicit constraint satisfaction in the incremental placement process. Our algorithm employs a Lagrangian Relaxation (LR) type approach in the analyt...
