Ant Colony Optimization and Constraint Programming
Wiley 2013; US$ 145.00Ant colony optimization is a metaheuristic which has been successfully applied to a wide range of combinatorial optimization problems. The author describes this metaheuristic and studies its efficiency for solving some hard combinatorial problems, with a specific focus on constraint programming. The text is organized into three parts. The first part... more...
Tree-based Graph Partitioning Constraint
Wiley 2013; US$ 96.00Combinatorial problems based on graph partitioning enable us to mathematically represent and model many practical applications. Mission planning and the routing problems occurring in logistics perfectly illustrate two such examples. Nevertheless, these problems are not based on the same partitioning pattern: generally, patterns like cycles, paths,... more...
Multiparadigm Constraint Programming Languages
Springer 2011; US$ 79.99Programming languages are often classified according to their paradigms, e.g. imperative, functional, logic, constraint-based, object-oriented, or aspect-oriented. A paradigm characterizes the style, concepts, and methods of the language for describing situations and processes and for solving problems, and each paradigm serves best for programming... more...
Constraint Networks
Wiley 2010; US$ 270.00A major challenge in constraint programming is to develop efficient generic approaches to solve instances of the constraint satisfaction problem (CSP). With this aim in mind, this book provides an accessible synthesis of the author's research and work in this area, divided into four main topics: representation, inference, search, and learning. The... more...
Trends in Constraint Programming
Wiley 2010; US$ 220.00This title brings together the best papers on a range of topics raised at the annual International Conference on Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming. This conference provides papers and workshops which produce new insights, concepts and results which can then be used by those involved in this area to develop their own work. more...
Constraint Handling Rules
Cambridge University Press 2009; US$ 82.00The definitive reference on Constraint Handling Rules, from the creator of the language. more...
A Class of Algorithms for Distributed Constraint Optimization
IOS Press 2009; US$ 167.00Addresses three major issues that arise in Distributed Constraint Optimization Problems (DCOP): efficient optimization algorithms, dynamic and open environments, and manipulations from self-interested users. This book introduces a series of DCOP algorithms, which are based on dynamic programming. more...
Trends in Constraint Programming
ISTE 2007; US$ 190.00Constraint programming is a constantly evolving field, something which is explored at the annual International Conference on Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming. This conference provides papers and workshops which produce new insights, concepts and results which those involved in this area can then use to develop their own work. This... more...
Einführung in die Constraint-Programmierung
Springer 2007; US$ 39.99Die Constraint-Programmierung liefert Methoden zur effizienten Modellierung von Systemen oder zur Lsung von Problemstellungen, bei denen nur unvollstndige Informationen vorliegen (z.B. Entscheidungssysteme, Optimierungsprobleme, Analyse stochastischer Prozesse), sowie zur Lsung kombinatorischer Probleme (Ressourcenmanagement) oder auch bei der Entwicklung... more...
Constraint Logic Programming using Eclipse
Cambridge University Press 2006; US$ 73.00This textbook offers an introduction to the Eclipse system and a guide to problem-solving for students and practitioners alike. more...
