Abstract. In this survey we compare the similarities, differences and the complexities of two very different approaches to solve a general constraint satisfaction probblems (CSP). ...
A temporal constraint language is a set of relations that has a first-order definition in (Q, <), the dense linear order of the rational numbers. We present a complete comple...
Constraint programming has been used in many applications where uncertainty arises to model safe reasoning. The goal of constraint propagation is to propagate intervals of uncerta...
Due to its important practical applications, temporal planning is of great research interest in artificial intelligence. Yet most of the work in this area so far is limited in at...
We study a selected group of hybrid EAs for solving CSPs, consisting of the best performing EAs from the literature. We investigate the contribution of the evolutionary component t...
