Quantum-accelerated constraint programming

Quantum Constraint Programming

Constraint Satisfaction , Constraint Programming

Recently constraint satisfaction has been embedded in various high-level declarative programming environments, like the Constraint Logic Programming framework, and even more recently such environments have been extended with concurrency, like in the Concurrent Constraint Programming paradigm. The merging of diierent areas of research is always an exciting event, and proliic of new ideas. We bel...

preventive maintenance scheduling with integer programming and constraint programming

preventive maintenance scheduling is to perform a series of tasks that prevents or minimizes production breakdowns and improves the reliability. mathematical models have been developed to solve the preventive maintenance scheduling problem. there are several limitations in the prior work in this area of research. craft combinations are assumed to be given. the craft combination problem concerns...

Performing Fully Parallel Constraint Logic Programming on a Quantum Annealer

A quantum annealer exploits quantum effects to solve a particular type of optimization problem. The advantage of this specialized hardware is that it effectively considers all possible solutions in parallel, thereby potentially outperforming classical computing systems. However, despite quantum annealers having recently become commercially available, there are relatively few high-level programm...

1 Constraint Programming in Constraint

1.1 Abstract We view constraints as relations and constraint satisfaction as a dynamic process of approaching the solution set of the constraints. We have developed a semantic model for dynamic systems, called Constraint Nets, to provide a real-time programming semantics and to model and analyze dynamic systems. In this paper, we explore the relationship between constraint satisfaction and cons...
