An Improved Hybrid Model for the Generic Hoist Scheduling Problem
Abstract. The generic hoist scheduling problem is NP-hard and arises from automated manufacturing lines. In recent work using the constraint logic programming (CLP) formalism, a un...

Constraint-Based Optimization with the Minimax Decision Criterion
Abstract. In many situations, a set of hard constraints encodes the feasible configurations of some system or product over which users have preferences. We consider the problem of...
