This paper describes the precise speci cation, design, analysis, implementation, and measurements of an e cient algorithm for solving regular tree grammar based constraints. The p...
Boolean satisfiability (SAT) finds a wide range of practical applications, including Artificial Intelligence and, more recently, Bioinformatics. Although encoding some combinat...
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...
Constraint programming provides a declarative approach to solving combinatorial (optimization) problems. The user just states the problem as a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP)...
We present a unified framework for designing polynomial time approximation schemes (PTASs) for “dense” instances of many NP-hard optimization problems, including maximum cut,...
