Configuration-Design Problem Solving
Configuration design is a form of design where a set of pre-defined components is given and an assembly of selected components is sought that satisfies a set of requirements and obeys a set of constraints [13,17]. Sometimes an optimality criterion may be given that defines an ordering upon possible solutions. A typical example of a configuration problem is the design of elevators from a set of ...
متن کاملSolving Configuration Problems in Excel
This work shows how Excel can be leveraged to tackle configuration problems. We demonstrate this by presenting the full development cycle of a PC-configurator prototype. We articulate our demonstration by exemplifying several important points. First, Excel can be used to import raw products and services data. Second, these data can be used by a constraint modelling to correctly instantiate a se...
متن کاملDecomposition Strategies for Automatically Solving Configuration Problems
Configuration was one of the first tasks successfully approached via AI techniques. However, solving configuration problems can be computationally expensive. In this work, we show that the decomposition of a configuration problem into a set of simpler and mutually independent subproblems can decrease the computational cost of solving it. In particular, we describe a decomposition technique expl...
متن کاملSolving combined configuration problems: a heuristic approach
This paper describes an abstract problem derived from a combination of Siemens product configuration problems encountered in practice. Often isolated parts of configuration problems can be solved by mapping them to well-studied problems for which efficient heuristics exist (graph coloring, bin-packing, etc.). Unfortunately, these heuristics may fail to work when applied to a problem that combin...
متن کاملConfiguration of Web Services as Parametric Design
The configuration of Web services is particularly hard given the heterogeneous, unreliable and open nature of the Web. Furthermore, such composite Web services are likely to be complex services, that will require adaptation for each specific use. Current approaches to Web service configuration are often based on pre/post-condition-style reasoning, resulting in a planning-style approach to servi...
