Consistency techniques are an e cient way of tackling constraint satisfaction problems (CSP). In particular, various arc-consistency algorithms have been designed such as the time...
We describe a general technique for expressing domain knowledge in constraint satisfaction problems, and using it to develop optimized parallel arc consistency algorithms for the ...
The weighted CSP (WCSP) framework is a soft constraint framework with a wide range of applications. In this paper, we consider the problem of maintaining local consistency during ...
We present an algorithm Pref-AC that limits arc consistency (AC) to the preferred choices of a tree search procedure and that makes constraint solving more efficient without chan...
