The Valued Constraint Satisfaction Problem (VCSP) is a general framework encompassing many optimisation problems. We discuss precisely what it means for a problem to be modelled in...
Case-based reasoning aims to use past experience to solve new problems. A strong requirement for its application is that extensive experience base exists that provides statisticall...
In this paper we introduce an evolutionary algorithm for solving a copper mine planning problem. In the last 10 years this realworld problem has been tackled using linear integer p...
The ideal software contract fully specifies the behavior of an operation. Often, in particular in the context of scripting languages, a full specification may be cumbersome to s...

We present Rhodium, a new language for writing compiler optimizations that can be automatically proved sound. Unlike our previous work on Cobalt, Rhodium expresses optimizations u...
