Constraint Processing Techniques for Improving Join Computation: A Proof of Concept
Constraint Processing and Database techniques overlap significantly. We discuss here the application of a constraint satisfaction technique, called dynamic bundling, to databases....

Evaluation-Based Semiring Meta-constraints
Abstract. Classical constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) provide an expressive formalism for describing and solving many real-world problems. However, classical CSPs prove to be...

Conflict-Directed A* Search for Soft Constraints
As many real-world problems involve user preferences, costs, or probabilities, constraint satisfaction has been extended to optimization by generalizing hard constraints to soft co...

Towards scalable data integration under constraints
In this paper we consider the problem of answering queries using views, with or without ontological constraints, which is important for data integration, query optimization, and d...

Distributed Non-binary Constraints
Nowadays many real problems can be modeled as Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs). In many situations, it is desirable to be able to state both hard constraints and soft constr...
