A coordination-based chaotic iteration algorithm for constraint propagation
Éric Monfroy · 2000
In this paper we propose a generic framework for constraint propagation using coordination languages.More precisely, we are concerned with the realization of a coordinationbased version of the Generic Iteration Algorithm for Compound Domains of [2].Our main motivation is to explain constraint propagation as coordination of cooperative agents, and to provide a flexible, scalable, and generic framework for constraint propagation that overcomes the problems that axe inherent in the parallel and distributed algorithms of [15; 16].Another benefit of our coordination-based framework is that it does not require special modeling of CSP's.
