This volume contains the proceedings of the First International
Conference on
IntegrationofAIandORTechniquesinConstraintProgrammingforCombina-
rialOptimisation Problems.This new conferencefollows the seriesof
CP-AI-OR International Workshops on Integration of AI and OR
Techniques in Constraint Programming for Combinatorial Optimisation
Problems held in Ferrara (1999), Paderborn (2000), Ashford (2001),
Le Croisic (2002), and Montreal (2003). The success of the previous
workshops has demonstrated that CP-AI-OR is bec- ing a major forum
for exchanging ideas and methodologiesfrom both ?elds. The aim of
this new conference is to bring together researchersfrom AI and OR,
and to give them the opportunity to show how the integration of
techniques from AI and OR can lead to interesting results on large
scale and complex problems. The integration of techniques from
Arti?cial Intelligence and Operations - search has provided
e?ective algorithms for tackling complex and large scale
combinatorial problems with signi?cant improvements in terms of
e?ciency, scalability and optimality. The bene't of this
integration has been shown in applications such as hoist
scheduling, rostering, dynamic scheduling and vehicle routing. At
the programming and modelling levels, most constraint languages
embed OR techniques to reason about collections of constraints,
so-calledglobal constraints. Some languages also provide support
for hybridization allowing the programmer to build new integrated
algorithms. The resulting multi-paradigm
programmingframeworkcombines the ?exibility and modelling
facilities of C- straint Programming with the special purpose and
e?cient methods from - erations Research.
This book constitutes the refereed conference proceedings of the
22nd International Conference on Principles and Practice of
Constraint Programming, CP 2016, held in Toulouse, France, in
September 2016. The 63 revised regular papers presented together
with 4 short papers and the abstracts of 4 invited talks were
carefully reviewed and selected from 157 submissions. The scope of
CP 2016 includes all aspects of computing with constraints,
including theory, algorithms, environments, languages, models,
systems, and applications such as decision making, resource
allocation, scheduling, configuration, and planning. The papers are
grouped into the following tracks: technical track; application
track; computational sustainability track; CP and biology track;
music track; preference, social choice, and optimization track;
testing and verification track; and journal-first and sister
conferences track.
