Conditional symmetry arises in a sub-problem of a constraint satisfaction problem, where the sub-problem satisfies some condition under which additional symetries hold. Typically...

In constraint satisfaction, decomposition is a common technique to split a problem in a number of parts in such a way that the global solution can be efficiently assembled from th...
We provide a reformulation of the constraint hierarchies (CHs) framework based on the notion of error indicators. Adapting the generalized view of local consistency in semiring-ba...

The SQL queries produced in XML-to-SQL query translation are often unnecessarily complex, even for simple input XML queries. In this paper we argue that relational systems can do ...
A tanglegram consists of a pair of (not necessarily binary) trees T1, T2 with leaf sets L1, L2. Additional edges, called tangles, may connect nodes in L1 with those in L2. The task...
