Abstract. This article deals with global constraints for which the set of solutions can be recognized by an extended finite automaton whose size is bounded by a polynomial in n, w...
The ALLDIFFERENT constraint was one of the first global constraints [17] and it enforces the conjunction of one binary constraint, the not-equal constraint, for every pair of varia...

Abstract. A common type of symmetry is when both variables and values partition into interchangeable sets. Polynomial methods have been introduced to eliminate all symmetric soluti...
