Constraint languages that arise from finite algebras have recently been the object of study, especially in connection with the Dichotomy Conjecture of Feder and Vardi. An importa...
Symmetry is an important factor in solving many constraint satisfaction problems. One common type of symmetry is when we have symmetric values. We can eliminate such value symmetr...
Symmetry in a Constraint Satisfaction Problem can cause wasted search, which can be avoided by adding constraints to the CSP to exclude symmetric assignments or by modifying the s...
A number of different satisfaction and optimisation combinatorial problems have recently been approached with constraint programming over the domain of finite sets, for increased d...
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...
