Call for Papers and Participation
The Fifth International Workshop
on Constraint Modelling and Reformulation
To be held at the 12th International Conference on
Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming (CP 2006)
Nantes, France
25 September 2006
=====================================================================
Constraint Programming (CP) is a powerful technology to solve
combinatorial problems, which are ubiquitous in academia and
industry. The last ten years or so have witnessed significant research
devoted to modelling and solving problems with constraints. CP is now
a mature field and has been successfully used for tackling a wide
range of real-life complex applications. However, such a technology is
currently accessible to only a small number of experts. For CP to be
more widely used by non-experts, more research effort is needed in
order to ease the use of the CP technology. We solicit original
papers that contribute to widen the use of the CP technology. Workshop
topics include (but are not limited to):
Application papers describing interesting problems and interesting
ways to model them;
Contributions to understanding modelling that could guide the manual
or automatic formulation of models;
Identification of the criteria that should be used in evaluating
models and the design of pragmatic techniques that facilitate the
choice among alternative models;
Design of modelling languages;
Automatic reformulation techniques.
SUBMISSION
----------
The workshop is open to all members of the CP community.
To submit a paper to the workshop, please e-mail to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] a PS or PDF file in LNCS conference style.
Papers should not exceed 15 pages.
The organising committee will acknowledge all submissions. If a
submitted paper is not acknowledged in 2 working days, the authors are
kindly asked to contact the chairs.
All submissions will be reviewed and those that present a significant
contribution to the workshop topics will be accepted for publication
in the workshop proceedings. The proceedings will be available
electronically at the workshop page and in hard copy on the day of the
workshop.
