—Conserving network-wide energy consumption is becoming an increasingly important concern for network operators. In this work, we study network-wide energy conservation problem w...
Abstract. This paper introduces a generalization of the nvalue constraint that bounds the number of distinct values taken by a set of variables.The generalized constraint (called n...
Constraints have played a central role in cp because they capture key substructures of a problem and efficiently exploit them to boost inference. This paper intends to do the same ...
Abstract. This article deals with global constraints for which the set of solutions can be recognized by an extended finite automaton whose size is bounded by a polynomial in n, w...
Many DSP and image processing embedded systems have hard memory constraints which makes it difficult to find a good task assignment and scheduling which fulfill these constrain...
