The goal of assembly planning consists in generating feasible sequences to assemble a product and selecting an efficient assembly sequence from which related constraint factors su...
Abstract- This paper presents a new operator for genetic algorithms that enhances their convergence in the case of nonlinear problems with nonlinear equality constraints. The propo...
We provide a reformulation of the constraint hierarchies (CHs) framework based on the notion of error indicators. Adapting the generalized view of local consistency in semiring-ba...

Many real-world constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) can be over-constrained but contain a set of mandatory or hard constraints that have to be satisfied for a solution to be ac...
We present a fully distributed multi-agent planning algorithm. Our methodology uses distributed constraint satisfaction to coordinate between agents, and local planning to ensure ...
