BPPC'12
Fourth International Workshop on Bin Packing and Placement Constraints
May 29th 2012, Nantes, France
http://contraintes.inria.fr/BPPC/
associated to the 9th International Conference on the Integration of Artificial
Intelligence and Operations Research techniques in Constraint Programming
CPAIOR 2012 http://www.emn.fr/z-info/cpaior-2012/
____ Scope ____
Bin Packing and Placement problems are an old but still challenging
topic that has been tackled with different approaches.
On the one hand, the aim of this workshop is to share recent progress
made on pure problems by using any technique (or the mix) like Mixed
Integer Linear Programming, Local Search, or Constraint Programming.
On the other hand, the aim is to present challenging problems formulated
and/or solved by these methods, or challenging extensions that have a
practical interest and for which pure methods do not directly work.
Submitted papers can be
* Extended Abstracts of new results or
* Abstract of ongoing works
* System presentations (with demos at the workshop)
* Summaries of already accepted or recently published results
on any topic concerning bin packing and placement constraints.
