Extensible Automated Constraint Modelling
<11>Choosing an effective constraint model requires considerable expertise. Automated constraint modelling is a grand challenge of the Constraint Programming field. This paper builds on our body of work on automated constraint modelling that has attracted considerable interest in the community. The Conjure system described represents a significant advance in the state of the art of automated constraint modelling, employing a set of refinement rules to produce constraint models automatically from their specifications in our Essence constraint specification language. AAAI, the venue for this paper is, along with ECAI and IJCAI, one of the best three conferences in Artificial Intelligence.
