Soft constraints are a generalization of classical constraints, where constraints and/or partial assignments are associated to preference or importance levels, and constraints are...
Soft constraints are a generalization of classical constraints, which allow for the description of preferences rather than strict requirements. In soft constraints, constraints and...
Abstract This paper proposes a design for a system to generate constraint solvers that are specialised for specific problem models. It describes the design in detail and gives prel...
Quality management is becoming a more and more important part of the software development process. As software testing is currently understood as the core function of the quality ...
Abstract. Constrained random simulation is supported by constraint solvers integrated within simulators. These constraint solvers need to be fast and memory efficient to maintain s...

Abstract. Constraint Nets provide a semantic model for modeling hybrid dynamic systems. Controllers are embedded constraint solvers that solve constraints in real-time. A controlle...
We propose a general scheme for the cooperation of different constraint solvers. A uniform interface for constraint solvers allows to formally specify information exchange between...
A method for finding bugs in code is presented. For given small numbers j and k, the code of a procedure is translated into a relational formula whose models represent all executi...
DICE (DIstributed Constraint Environment) is a framework for the construction of distributed constraint solvers from software components in a number of predefined categories. The...
This paper presents an attempt to construct a ”practical” CSP algorithm that assigns a variable with 2 values at every step. Such a strategy has been successfully used for cons...
