We consider an optical routing problem. SONET add-drop multiplexers (ADMs) are the dominant cost factor in SONET /WDM rings. The number of SONET ADMs required by a set of traffic...
Abstract— In this article, we propose a fully distributed algorithm for finding all primes in an given interval [2..n] (or (L, R), more generally), based on the SMER — Schedul...

Abstract. The NValue constraint counts the number of different values assigned to a vector of variables. Propagating generalized arc consistency on this constraint is NP-hard. We ...
A cardinality constraint imposes that each value of a set V must be taken a certain number of times by a set of variables X, whereas an among constraint imposes that a certain numb...
Many real problems can be modelled as robust shortest path problems on digraphs with interval costs, where intervals represent uncertainty about real costs and a robust path is not...
