Consistencies are properties of Constraint Networks (CNs) that can be exploited in order to make inferences. When a significant amount of such inferences can be performed, CNs ar...
Answer-set programming (ASP) is widely recognised as a viable tool for declarative problem solving. However, there is currently a lack of tools for developing answer-set programs....
Importance Sampling is a potentially powerful variance reduction technique to speed up simulations where the objective depends on the occurrence of rare events. However, it is cru...
Semiconductor fabs often offer manufacturing service of multiple priorities in terms of cycle time-based X-factor targets (XFTs) and fab production must be planned accordingly. Th...
Abstract. The same methodology is used to develop 3 different applications. We begin by using a very expressive, appropriate Domain Specific Language, to write down precise problem...
