Abstract. Many symmetry breaking techniques assume that the symmetries of a CSP are given as input in addition to the CSP itself. We present a method that can be used to detect all...
We propose a surprisingly simple new way of breaking all value symmetries with constraints. Our method requires the addition of one variable per value of the problem plus a linear ...
Besides search, complete inference methods can also be used to solve soft constraint problems. Their main drawback is the high spatial complexity. To improve its practical usage, w...
In this paper, we present an algorithm for finding utilitarian optimal solutions to Simple and Disjunctive Temporal Problems with Preferences (STPPs and DTPPs) based on Benders’...

We consider the problem of encoding Boolean cardinality constraints in conjunctive normal form (CNF). Boolean cardinality constraints are formulae expressing that at most (resp. at...
