Cp-based Decision Making for Sme
نویسندگان
چکیده
Constraint programming (CP) is an emergent software technology for declarative description and effective solution of large combinatorial problems, which has proven to be useful, especially in such areas as integrated production planning. In that context, the CP can be considered as a well-suited framework for the development of decision-making software supporting small and medium size enterprises (SME) in the course of Production Process Planning (PPP). The aim of the paper is to present the CP modelling framework as well as to illustrate its application to decision making in the case of a new production order evaluation. The paper emphasises benefits derived from CP-based Decision Support Systems and focuses on constraint satisfaction driven decision making rather than on optimal solution searching.
