* Description and goals:
------------------------
The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers and
practitioners working on constraint propagation and interval analysis,
providing a forum to present ongoing research and practices and to
discuss techniques for real-world requirements.
Constraint propagation, or range reduction, is appealing for solving
numerical problems in a constraint programming or global optimization
fashion because it guarantees two essential properties:
- completeness which means the ability to find all solutions if any,
or else to prove that there are no solutions to the problem,
- rigor which means that the rounding errors due to floating-point
computation can be rigorously controlled.
Completeness and rigor are essential in numerous practical
applications such as engineering design, robotics, control, logistics,
manufacturing, chemical and biological sciences and computer-aided
design to name a few.
The workshop aims at exploring the complementarity of
different approaches and how it can be used to produce pratical
powerful solvers. Other topics often relevant in applications are:
- specific reduction techniques;
- uncertainty handling techniques;
- specific problem structures exploitation;
- mixture of discrete and continuous variable domains;
- specific techniques for underconstrained problems;
- solution selection by means of preferences or "browsing".
We seek contributions that address such questions, and present
relevant software tools, algorithms, theoretical results, or
applications of constraint propagation and interval analysis
techniques oriented toward real-world problems. We particularly
encourage the presentation of work that bridge the gap between
theory and practice.
* Submissions:
--------------
People wishing to give a talk should submit an extended abstract of
at least 2 pages. Submissions must be formatted using LNCS packages
(see CP formatting instructions). The title page should include the
name, address and electronic mailing address for each author.
Please, email all submissions in postscript or pdf format to
** intcp-sub@xxxxxxx ** by July 2nd 2006, specifying the name of
the contact author in the message.
Submissions will be reviewed by at least one committee member, and
will be selected on the basis of their adequation to the topic of the
workshop. Authors will receive feedback in the form of
reviewers' comments.
The accepted papers will appear in the workshop notes, which will be
distributed to the participants. At least one author of each accepted
submission must attend the workshop to present the paper.
* Accomodation/Registration:
----------------------------
Accomodation is provided by the hosting conference CP 2006. All
workshop attendees must pay the workshop fee. It is however possible
to attend the workshop without paying the CP 2006 regular
registration fee.
