The paper analyzes a diagrammatic reasoning problem that consists in finding a graphical layout which simultaneously satisfies a set of constraints expressed in a formal language a...
constraint abstractions into integer programming, and to discuss possible combinations of the two approaches. Combinatorial problems are ubiquitous in many real world applications ...
Abstract. Current approaches to multi-agent interaction involve specifying protocols as sets of possible interactions, and hard-coding decision mechanisms into agent programs in or...
Analysis and design by contract allows the definition of a formal agreement between a class and its clients, expressing each party’s rights and obligations. Contracts written in ...

In CP literature combinatorial design problems such as sport scheduling, Steiner systems, error-correcting codes and more, are typically solved using Finite Domain (FD) models desp...
