A Meeting Scheduling System Based on Open Constraint Programming
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we introduce a meeting scheduling system based on open constraint programming (OCP) paradigm. OCP is an extension to constraint logic programming (CLP), where a server capable of executing constraint logic programs acts as a mediator of communicating reactive agents. A meeting among several users can be scheduled automatically by a constraint logic program in the server based on the meeting participants’ preferences. Flexible user preferences can be programmed using the OCP reactors language. CLP is suitable to be used in meeting scheduling which is a combinatorial problem. Its declarative programmability is more amenable to changes.

ORE extraction and blending optimization model in poly- metallic open PIT mines by chance constrained one-sided goal programming
Determination a sequence of extracting ore is one of the most important problems in mine annual production scheduling. Production scheduling affects mining performance especially in a poly-metallic open pit mine with considering the imposed operational and physical constraints mandated by high levels of reliability in relation to the obtained actual results. One of the important operational con...
متن کاملComparing Mixed-Integer and Constraint Programming for the No-Wait Flow Shop Problem with Due Date Constraints
The impetus for this research was examining a flow shop problem in which tasks were expected to be successively carried out with no time interval (i.e., no wait time) between them. For this reason, they should be completed by specific dates or deadlines. In this regard, the efficiency of the models was evaluated based on makespan. To solve the NP-Hard problem, we developed two mathematical mode...
