We have started a systematic study of global constraints on set and multiset variables. We consider here disjoint, partition, and intersection constraints in conjunction with cardi...
This paper presents an algorithm that achieves hyper-arc consistency for the soft alldifferent constraint. To this end, we prove and exploit the equivalence with a minimum-cost flo...
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...
In this paper, we propose a novel technique on mining relationships in a sequential circuit to discover global constraints. In contrast to the traditional learning methods, our mi...
We investigate how the recently developed different approaches to generate randomized roundings satisfying disjoint cardinality constraints behave when used in two classical algori...
