Label Algebras: A Systematic Use of Terms
: We give the main definitions and results of a new framework for algebraic specifications: the framework of label algebras. The main idea underlying our approach is that the sem...

: A Bottom-Up Approach for Solving Quantified CSPs
Abstract. Thanks to its extended expressiveness, the quantified constraint satisfaction problem (QCSP) can be used to model problems that are difficult to express in the standard C...

A Generalized Cyclic-Clustering Approach for Solving Structured CSPs
We propose a new method for solving structured CSPs which generalizes and improves the Cyclic-Clustering approach [4]. First, the cutset and the tree-decomposition of the constrai...

The Complexity of Positive First-Order Logic without Equality II: The Four-Element Case
We study the complexity of evaluating positive equality-free sentences of first-order (FO) logic over fixed, finite structures B. This may be seen as a natural generalisation of th...

Leveraging the Learning Power of Examples in Automated Constraint Acquisition
Constraint programming is rapidly becoming the technology of choice for modeling and solving complex combinatorial problems. However, users of constraint programming technology nee...
