In constraint programming one models a problem by stating constraints on acceptable solutions. The constraint model is then usually solved by interleaving backtracking search and ...
In design, multiple disparate goals must be addressed simultaneously. It is the thesis of this work that problems in two-dimensional layout design can be solved by collaboration a...
When search techniques are used to solve a practical problem, the solution produced is often brittle in the sense that small execution difficulties can have an arbitrarily large e...

Graphplan and heuristic state space planners such as HSP-R and UNPOP are currently two of the most effective approaches for solving classical planning problems. These approaches h...
Currently, Graphplan and Blackbox, which converts Graphplan's plan graph into the satisfaction (SAT) problem, are two of the most successful planners. Since Graphplan gains i...
