A Soft Constraint of Equality: Complexity and Approximability
We introduce the SoftAllEqual global constraint, which maximizes the number of equalities holding between pairs of assignments to a set of variables. We study the computational com...

Symmetries of Symmetry Breaking Constraints
Symmetry is an important feature of many constraint programs. We show that any symmetry acting on a set of symmetry breaking constraints can be used to break symmetry. Different s...

Improving the Global Constraint SoftPrec
A soft global constraint SOFTPREC has been proposed recently for solving optimisation problems involving precedence relations. In this paper we present new pruning rules for this g...

Integrating Constraints, Composite Objects and Tasks in a Knowledge Representation System
Tropes, an object-based knowledge representation system, has been added three important intertwined features: constraints, composite objects and tasks. Constraints provide a decla...

Managing Personal Tasks with Time Constraints and Preferences
This paper treats the problem of managing personal tasks, through an adaptation of the Squeaky Wheel Optimization (SWO) framework, enhanced with powerful heuristics and full const...
