The Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) framework allows users to define problems in a declarative way, quite independently from the solving process. However, when the problem i...

The objective of the Maximal Constraint Satisfaction Problem (Max-CSP) is to find an instantiation which minimizes the number of constraint violations in a constraint network. In t...
Abstract. Computing lower bounds to the best-cost extension of a tuple is an ubiquous task in constraint optimization. A particular case of special interest is the computation of l...
Abstract. We present a new generic problem solving approach for overconstrained problems based on Max-SAT. We first define a clausal form formalism that deals with blocks of clau...
Non-linear AE-solution sets are a special case of parametric systems of equations where universally quantified parameters appear first. They allow to model many practical situat...
