A timing-constrained simultaneous global routing algorithm
In this paper, we propose a new approach for VLSI interconnect global routing that can optimize both congestion and delay, which are often competing objectives. Our approach provi...

Directed soft arc consistency in pseudo trees
We propose an efficient method that applies directed soft arc consistency to a Distributed Constraint Optimization Problem (DCOP) which is a fundamental framework of multi-agent ...

Hierarchically Nested Convex VCSP
We introduce tractable classes of VCSP instances based on convex cost functions. Firstly, we show that the class of VCSP instances satisfying the hierarchically nested convexity pr...

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...

Online Interval Coloring with Packing Constraints
We study online interval coloring problems with bandwidth. We are interested in some variants motivated by bin packing problems. Specifically we consider open-end coloring, cardin...
