Some of the earliest examples for CLP(R) were for analysing analog circuits, whose behavior can be described by Ohm’s law for the relation between resistance, voltage and current and Kirchhoff’s laws which defines how connected circuits behave. This early analysis later was extended to more complex, hybrid networks. One of the most interesting practical problems in this domain is the configurat...

Water distribution systems are complex interconnected networks that require extensive planning and maintenance to ensure that the drinking water is delivered to the consumers. Lack of adequate water supply in urban areas is due to aging water distribution systems and inadequate maintenance of this critical infrastructure (Bhave 2003). The reliability of such deteriorating systems is continually...
