Abstract

Third International Workshop on Local Search Techniques in Constraint Satisfaction in conjunction with CP 2006


Growing Comet

Pascal van Hentenryck, Brown University, USA

This talk discusses the growth of Comet and shows that a few concepts and constructs have enabled Comet to express, in a declarative way, increasingly complex local search algorithms. The talk will present, in a principled way, the foundation for modeling and search in Comet and its multi-layered, open, and compositional architecture. Future, exciting directions will also be discussed.
