Global Optimization and Constraint Satisfaction: First International Workshop Global Constraint Optimization and Constraint Satisfaction, COCOS 2002 (Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 2861)

Authors: Christian Bliek, Christophe Jermann, Arnold Neumaier Publisher: Springer Edition: 1 Publish Year: 2003 ISBN: 9783540204633 This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the First International Workshop on Global Constraints Optimization and Costraint Satisfaction, COCOS 2002, held in Valbonne-Sophia Antipolis, France in October 2002. The 15 revised full papers presented together with 2 invited papers were carefully selected during two rounds of reviewing and improvement. The papers address current issues in global optimization, mathematical programming, and constraint programming; they are grouped in topical sections on optimization, constraint satisfaction, and benchmarking.
