We present the design and the implementation of clp(B): a boolean constraint solver inside the Constraint Logic Programming paradigm. This solver is based on local propagation meth...
Though there exist some rules of thumb for design of good models for solving constraint satisfaction problems, the modeling process still belongs more to art than to science. Moreo...
We propose a novel two-level Boolean minimizer coming in succession to our previously developed minimizer BOOM, so we have named it BOOM-II. It is a combination of two minimizers,...
This paper introduces a new hybrid method for efficiently integrating Pseudo-Boolean (PB) constraints into generic SAT solvers in order to solve PB satisfiability and optimization...
Abstract. Over the last decade, first-order constraints have been efficiently used in the artificial intelligence world to model many kinds of complex problems such as: scheduling,...
