The complexity of soft constraint satisfaction
Over the past few years there has been considerable progress in methods to systematically analyse the complexity of constraint satisfaction problems with specified constraint type...

The Impact of Constraint Programming
Constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) are ubiquitous in many real-world contexts. However, modeling a problem as a CSP can be very challenging, usually requiring considerable ex...

Universal Algebra and Hardness Results for Constraint Satisfaction Problems
We present algebraic conditions on constraint languages Γ that ensure the hardness of the constraint satisfaction problem CSP(Γ) for complexity classes L, NL, P, NP and ModpL. Th...

The wordlength determination problem of linear time invariant systems with multiple outputs - a geometric programming approach
This paper proposes two new methods for optimizing objectives and constraints. The GP approach is very general and hardware resources in finite wordlength implementation of it allo...

Lexicographically-ordered constraint satisfaction problems
Abstract. We describe a simple CSP formalism for handling multi-attribute preference problems with hard constraints, one that combines hard constraints and preferences so the two a...
