In this paper, a state-based approach for the Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) is proposed. The key novelty is an original use of state memorization during search to prevent ...
Effective reuse of Knowledge Bases (KBs) often entails the expensive task of identifying plausible KB-PS (Problem Solver) combinations. We propose a novel technique based on Const...

We present a new conceptual abstraction in symmetry breaking – the GE-tree. The construction and traversal of a GE-tree breaks all symmetries in any constraint satisfaction or si...

Abstract. Temporal Constraint Satisfaction is an information technology useful for representing and answering queries about the times of events and the temporal relations between t...
