%- "Manual"/"Misc": ergänzt "(Veranst.)" hinter "Organization"!
%- "InBook": setzt "Kap." & "S." direkt hinter den Titel; für Teil
%  eines Buches, der nicht unbedingt über einen eigenen Titel verfügt
%  (ansonsten besser: "InCollection")
%- "TechReport": wird hier für Forschungsberichte, Manuals und reine
%  Webadressen eingesetzt (für letztere, weil dort "Organization" nicht
%  nutzbar ist); bei Forschungsberichten wird die englische Bezeichnung
%  und die Nummer bei "Number" eingetragen, "Type" bleibt frei, so dass
%  automatisch "Forschungsbericht" eingetragen wird; für Manuals und
%  Webadressen wird das "Number"-Feld genutzt Versionsinformationen
%  unterzubringen (Version, Release, Edition, ...), "Type" kennzeichnet
%  hier den Typ der Veröffentlichung (z.B. Handbuch, Online Handbuch,
%  Manual, Datasheet, Tutorial, ...)

                   is to do if a constraint problem is inconsistent

                   locally consistent solutions, it answeres the
                   questions: What is a relaxation of a constraint
                   problem?  Do solutions of relaxed problems lead to
                   a solution of the original one? Does a locally
                   consistent relaxation always exist? How to obtain
                   such a relaxation efficiently? As an answer to the
                   last question, we present an algorithm which has
                   been implemented as an extension of the CONSAT

  Abstract       = {Logic programming enjoys a privileged position. It
                   is firmly rooted in mathematical logic, yet it is
                   also immensely practical, as a growing number of
                   users in universities, research institutes, and
                   industry are realizing. Logic programming
                   languages, specifically Prolog, have turned out to
                   be ideal as prototyping and application development
                   languages. This volume presents the proceedings of
                   the Second Logic Programming Summer School,
                   LPSS'92. The First Logic Programming Summer School,
                   LPSS '90, addressed the theoretical foundations of
                   logic programming. This volume focuses onthe
                   relationship between theory and practice, and on
                   practical applications. The introduction to the
                   volume is by R. Kowalski, one of the pioneers in
                   the field. The following papers are organized into
                   sections on constraint logic programming, deductive
                   databases and expert systems, processing of natural
                   and formal languages, software engineering, and

                   more and more important. Client-server
                   architectures are often confronted with performance
                   problems due to server overload. In this paper we
                   will present a methodology that tries to minimise
                   the server load and thus can allow certain
                   application to be put on the Internet. The idea is
                   to formalise the problem as a constraint
                   satisfaction problem (CSP). This formalization
                   supports a natural decomposition of the task into
                   two subtasks. Namely the generation of the CSP that
                   needs to be done on the server, because in this
                   phase a database might have to be accessed and a
                   second task to solve the CSP that can be done
                   locally on the client. For solving the CSP
                   generated by the server we provide the Java
                   Constraint Library (JCL) that allows the problem to
                   be solved on any Internet capable computer.},

  Abstract       = {Most existing libraries providing constraint
                   facilities are embedded in the logic programming
                   language, Prolog, or in the object-oriented
                   language, C++. Recently, some proposals have been
                   made to integrate constraint handling in Java. The
                   goal of this work is to provide a new constraint
                   library for Java, called JACK. It consists of a
                   high-level language for writing constraint solvers,
                   a generic search engine and a tool to visualize the
                   simplification and propagation of constraints.},

  Title          = {Algorithms for Constraints Satisfaction Problems:
                   A Survey},
  Abstract       = {A large variety of problems in Artificial
                   Intelligence and other areas of computer science
                   can be viewed as a special case of the constraint
                   satisfaction problem. Some examples are machine
                   vision, belief maintenance, scheduling, temporal
                   reasoning, graph problems, floor plan design,
                   planning genetic experiments, and the satisfiabilty
                   problem. A number of different approaches have been
                   developed for solving these problems. Some of them
                   use constraint propagation to simplify the original
                   problem. Others use backtracking to directly search
                   for possible solutions. Some are a combination of
                   these two techniques. This paper presents a brief
                   overview of many of these approaches in a tutorial
                   fashion},

                   effective solving of large, particularly
                   combinatorial, problems especially in areas of
                   planning and scheduling. It represents the most
                   exciting developments in programming languages of
                   the last decade and, not surprisingly, it has
                   recently been identified by the ACM (Association
                   for Computing Machinery) as one of the strategic
                   directions in computer research. Not only it is
                   based on a strong theoretical foundation but it is
                   attracting widespread commercial interest as well,
                   in particular, in areas of modelling heterogeneous
                   optimisation and satisfaction problems. In the
                   paper, we give a survey of constraint programming
                   technology and its applications starting from the
                   history context and interdisciplinary nature of
                   CP. The central part of the paper is dedicated to
                   the description of main constraint satisfaction
                   techniques and industrial applications. We conclude
                   with the overview of limitations of current CP
                   tools and with outlook of future directions.},

  Abstract       = {Despite successful application of constraint
                   programming (CP) to solving many real-life problems
                   there is still an indispensable group of
                   researchers considering (wrongly) CP as a simple
                   evaluation technique only. Even if sophisticated
                   search algorithms play an important role in solving
                   constraint-based models, the real power engine
                   behind CP is called constraint propagation (domain
                   filtering, pruning or consistency techniques). In
                   the paper we give a survey of common consistency
                   techniques for binary constraints. We describe the
                   main idea behind them, list their advantages and
                   limitations, and compare their pruning power. Last
                   part of the paper is devoted to modelling
                   issues. We give some hints how the constraint
                   propagation can be exploited more when solving
                   real-life problems. This part is based on our
                   experience with solving real-life programs and it
                   is also supported by empirical observations of
                   other researchers.},

  Abstract       = {DAC, DPC (problem decomposition into (solvable)
                   (sub-) trees): Many AI tasks can be formulated as
                   constraint-satisfaction problems (CSP), i.e., the
                   assignment of values to variables subject to a set
                   of constraints. While some CSPs are hard, those
                   that are easy can often be mapped into sparse
                   networks of constraints which, in the extreme case,
                   are trees. This paper identifies classes of
                   problems that lend themselves to easy solutions,
                   and develops algorithms that solve these problems
                   optimally. The paper then presents a method of
                   generating heuristic advice to guide the order of
                   value assignments based on both the sparseness
                   found in the constraint network and the simplicity
                   of tree-structured CSPs. The advice is generated by
                   simplifying the pending subproblems into trees,
                   counting the number of consistent solutions in each
                   simplified subproblem, and comparing these counts
                   to decide among the choices pending in the original
                   problem.},

                   from the presentations given during two workshops
                   on constraint processing; these workshops were held
                   in conjunction with the International Congress on
                   Computer Systems and Applied Mathematics
                   (St. Petersburg, Russia, July 1993) and the
                   European Conference on Artificial Intelligence
                   (Amsterdam, The Netherlands, August 1994).  This
                   volume essentially contributes to integrating the
                   different approaches to the young and very active
                   field of constraint processing by offering papers
                   from logic programming, knowledge representation,
                   expert systems, theoretical computer science,
                   operations research, and other fields. Among
                   contributions are two surveys, by Podelski and van

  Abstract       = {Recently, efficient algorithms have been proposed
                   to achieve arc- and path-consistency in constraint
                   net-works. The best path-consistency algorithm
                   proposed is PC-{5|6} which is a natural
                   generalization of AC-6 to path-consistency
                   independently proposed in [10] for PC-5 and [3] for
                   PC-6. Unfortunately, we have remarked that
                   PC-{5|6}, though it is widely better than PC-4[6],
                   was not very efficient in practice, specially for
                   those classes of problems that require an important
                   space to be run. So, we propose a new
                   path-consistency algorithm called PC-8, the space
                   complexity of which is O(n' d) but its time
                   complexity is O(n3d4) i.e. worse than that of PC-{
                   5|6}. However, the simplicity of PC-8 as well as
                   the data structures used for its implementation
                   offer a higher performance than PC-{5|6}. The
                   principle of PC-8 is also used to propose a new
                   algorithm to achieve arc-consistency called AC-8.},

  Title          = {Some Practicable Filtering Techniques for the
                   Constraint Satisfaction Problem},
  Abstract       = {Filtering techniques are essential in order to
                   efficiently solve constraint satisfaction problems
                   (CSPs). A blind search often leads to a combinatorial
                   explosion, the algorithm repeatedly finding the same
                   local inconsistencies. Maintaining a local consistency
                   can strongly reduce the search effort especially on
                   hard and large problems. A good illustration are the
                   good time performances on such problems of maintaining
                   arc consistency during search compared to forward
                   checking which maintains a lower level of local
                   consistency. On the one hand, arc consistency
                   (2-consistency) is the most used filtering technique
                   because it cheaply removes some values that cannot
                   belong to any solution. On the other hand, other
                   k-consistencies (k >= 3) have important space and time
                   requirements because they can change the set of
                   constraints. They can only be used on very small CSPs.
                   Thus, in this paper, we study and compare the filtering
                   techniques that are more pruningful than arc
                   consistency while leaving unchanged the set of
                   constraints. As arc consistency, they only remove
                   inconsistent values in the domains, and so, can deal
                   with large CSPs.},

  Abstract       = {Recently, efficient algorithms have been
                   proposed to achieve arc- and path-consistencey
                   in constraint networks. For example, for
                   arc-consistency, there are linear time algorithms
                   (in the size of the problem) which are efficient in
                   practice (e.g. AC-6 and AC-7). The best
                   path-consistency algorithm proposed is PC-{5|6}
                   which is a natural generalization of AC-6 to
                   path-consistency. While its theoretical complexity
                   is the best, experimentations show clearly that it
                   is not very efficient in practice. In this paper,
                   we propose two algorithms, one for arc-consistency,
                   AC-8, and the second for path-consistency,
                   PC-8. These algorithms are based on the same
                   principle: to exploit minimal supports as AC-6 and
                   PC-{5|6} do, but without recording them. While for
                   AC-8, this approach is of limited interest, we show
                   that for path-consistency, this new approach allows
                   to outperform singnificantly existing algorithms.},

  Title          = {Singleton Consistencies},
  Abstract       = {We perform a comprehensive theoretical and
                   empirical study of the benefits of singleton
                   consistencies. Our theoretical results help place
                   singleton consistencies within the hierarchy of
                   local consistencies. To determine the practical
                   value of these theoretical results, we measured the
                   cost-effectiveness of pre-processing with singleton
                   consistency algorithms. Our experiments use both
                   random and structured problems. Whilst
                   pre-processing with singleton consistencies is not
                   in general beneficial for random problems, it
                   starts to pay off when randomness and structure are
                   combined, and it is very worthwhile with structured
                   problems like Golomb rulers. On such problems,
                   pre-processing with consistency techniques as
                   strong as singleton generalized arc-consistency
                   (the singleton extension of generalized
                   arc-consistency) can reduce runtimes. We also show
                   that limiting algorithms that enforce singleton
                   consistencies to a single pass often gives a small
                   reduction in the amount of pruning and improves
                   their cost-effectiveness. These experimental
                   results also demonstrate that conclusions from
                   studies on random problems should be treated with
                   caution.},

  Abstract       = {In constraint networks, the efficiency of a search
                   algorithm is strongly related to the local
                   consistency maintained during search. For a long
                   time, it has been considered that forward checking
                   was the best compromise between the pruning effect
                   and the amount of overhead involved. But recent
                   works, comparing the search algorithms on a large
                   range of networks, show that maintaining arc
                   consistency during search (MAC) outperforms forward
                   checking on large and hard problems. It is
                   conceivable that on very difficult instances, using
                   an even more pruningful local consistency may pay
                   off. To know which local consistency is the most
                   promising, a study comparing both their pruning
                   efficiency and the time needed to achieve them has
                   been done [DE97]. This work shows that PIC1, the
                   path inverse consistency algorithm presented in
                   [FE96], has very bad average and worst case time
                   complexities.  In this paper, we give a property of
                   PIC and we propose and evaluate a PIC algorithm
                   based on this property that has an optimal worst
                   case time complexity. Experiments show that
                   maintaining PIC during search outperforms MAC on
                   hard sparses CNs.},

@Article{chen01cbj,
  Author         = {Chen, Xinguang and van Beek, Peter},
  Title          = {Conflict-Directed Backjumping Revisited},
  Abstract       = {Abstract: In recent years, many improvements to
                   backtracking algorithms for solving constraint
                   satisfaction problems have been proposed. The
                   techniques for improving backtracking algorithms
                   can be conveniently classified as look-ahead
                   schemes and look-back schemes. Unfortunately,
                   look-ahead and look-back schemes are not entirely
                   orthogonal as it has been observed empirically that
                   the enhancement of look-ahead techniques is
                   sometimes counterproductive to the effects of
                   look-back techniques. In this paper, we focus on
                   the relationship between the two most important
                   look-ahead techniques---using a variable ordering
                   heuristic and maintaining a level of local
                   consistency during the backtracking search---and
                   the look-back technique of conflict-directed
                   backjumping (CBJ). We show that there exists a
                   ``perfect'' dynamic variable ordering such that CBJ
                   becomes redundant. We also show theoretically that
                   as the level of local consistency that is
                   maintained in the backtracking search is increased,
                   the less that backjumping will be an
                   improvement. Our theoretical results partially
                   explain why a backtracking algorithm doing more in
                   the look-ahead phase cannot benefit more from the
                   backjumping look-back scheme. Finally, we show
                   empirically that adding CBJ to a backtracking
                   algorithm that maintains generalized arc
                   consistency (GAC), an algorithm that we refer to as
                   GAC-CBJ, can still provide orders of magnitude
                   speedups. Our empirical results contrast with
                   Bessiere and Regin's conclusion (1996) that CBJ is
                   useless to an algorithm that maintains arc
                   consistency.},

  Abstract       = {CN: A computer program, named MAPSEE, for
                   interpreting maps sketched freehand on a graphical
                   data tablet is described. The emphasis in the
                   program is on discovering cues that invoke
                   descriptive models which capture the requisite
                   cartographic and geographic knowledge. A model
                   interprets ambiguously the local environment of a
                   cue. By resolving these interpretations using a new
                   network consistency algorithm for n-ary relations,
                   MAPSEE achieves an interpretation of the map. It is
                   demonstrated that this approach can be made viable
                   even though the map cannot initially be properly
                   segmented. A thoroughly conservative, initial,
                   partial segmentation is described. The effects of
                   its necessary deficiencies on the interpretation
                   process are shown. The ways in which the
                   interpretation can refine the segmentation are
                   indicated.},

  Abstract       = {A solution of a Constraint Satisfaction Problem
                   (CSP) is an assignment of values to all its
                   variables such that all its constraints are
                   satisfied. Usually two CSPs are considered
                   equivalent if they have the same solution set. We
                   find this definition limiting, and develop a more
                   general definition based on the concept of mutual
                   reducibility. In this extended scheme it is
                   reasonable to consider a pair of CSPs equivalent
                   even if they have different solutions. The basic
                   idea behind the extended scheme is that two CSPs
                   can be considered equivalent whenever they contain
                   the {"}same information{"}, in the sense that it is
                   possible to obtain the solution of one from the
                   solution of the other, and viceversa. In this
                   scheme, both constraint and variable redundancy are
                   allowed in CSPs belonging to the same equivalence
                   class, since they do not affect the information
                   content of the problem. By using this new
                   definition of equivalence, we prove that binary and
                   non-binary CSPs are equivalent. Such a result was

  Abstract       = {It is well known that any non-binary discrete
                   constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) can be
                   translated into an equivalent binary CSP. Two
                   translations are known: the dual graph translation
                   and the hidden variable translation. However, there
                   has been little theoretical or experimental work on
                   how well backtracking algorithms perform on these
                   binary representations in comparison to their
                   performance on the corresponding non-binary CSP. We
                   present both theoretical and empirical results to
                   help understand the tradeoffs involved. In
                   particular, we show that translating a non-binary
                   CSP into a binary representation can be a viable
                   solution technique in certain circumstances. The
                   ultimate aim of this research is to give guidance
                   for when one should consider translating between
                   non-binary and binary representations. Our results
                   supply some initial answers to this questions.},

                   comparison of the dual and hidden variable
                   encodings of non-binary constraint satisfaction
                   problems. We identify a simple relationship between
                   the two encodings by showing how we can translate
                   between the two by composing or decomposing
                   relations. This translation suggests that we will
                   tend to achieve more pruning in the dual than in
                   the hidden variable encoding. We prove that
                   achieving arc-consistency on the dual encoding is
                   strictly stronger than achieving arc-consistency on
                   the hidden variable, and this itself is equivalent
                   to achieving generalized arc-consistency on the
                   original (non-binary) problem. We also prove that,
                   as a consequence of the unusual topology of the
                   constraint graph in the hidden variable encoding,
                   inverse consistencies like neighborhood inverse
                   consistency and path inverse consistency collapse
                   down onto arc-consistency. Finally, we propose the

  Title          = {A Distributed Cooperating Constraints Solving
                   System},
  Abstract       = {An appropriate combination of symbolic and numeric
                   solvers often makes it possible to solve problems
                   that none of these solvers can tackle alone. In
                   this paper, we specify a cooperative architecture
                   which allows using concurrently heterogeneous
                   solvers when handling constraints over the
                   reals. This architecture is based upon agents that
                   communicate via asynchronous message
                   passing. Agents are synchronized when a failure or
                   a success occurs. Disjunctive constraints are
                   handled by backtracking. Operational semantics and
                   terminating conditions of such systems are
                   discussed. Implementation issues are addressed. We
                   end the presentation by several examples and give
                   some computational results from a first
                   prototype.},

                   vorgestellt. Basierend auf der Definition eines
                   einheitlichen Interfaces für Constraint-Löser wird
                   ein offener und flexibler Kombinations-Mechanismus
                   entwickelt, der die Integration einer grosser
                   Anzahl existierender Löser erlaubt. Es wird
                   gezeigt, wie man mit Hilfe dieses Mechanismus
                   Reduktionssysteme zur Beschreibung des Verhaltens
                   des Systems kooperierender Löser definiert und
                   damit Kooperations-Strategien realisiert.},
