*Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming (CP 2018)*
Lille, France, August 27-31
For the third consecutive year, the organizers of CP 2018 are seeking to
extend the scope of the conference through themed tracks. Of particular
interest are topics that are potentially relevant to the CP/AI/computer
science community, even if they do not directly involve constraint
programming. Both repeat tracks and new tracks are welcome. CP 2018 will
also include technical and applications tracks as in previous years.
Tracks at recent meetings have covered biology, machine learning,
operations research & mathematical programming, satisfiability, testing &
verification, music, computational sustainability, and social choice
theory. Proposals for additional topics are enthusiastically encouraged,
whether they involve methodology, software, or specific application areas.
The conference will provide track participants an opportunity to learn
about the latest trends and attend tutorials in constraint programming, a
powerful technology that is rapidly being adopted by industry. Papers
accepted for presentation will be published in the conference proceedings,
which are distributed at the time of the conference.
Proposals are invited from potential track chairs, who will be expected to
recruit a small program committee (5 to 10 individuals) to review
submissions. The chair(s) of the proposed track should reasonably expect
to receive at least a half dozen submissions, some of which can be
individually solicited if desired. They will also serve as members of the
Senior Program Committee, which will discuss final acceptance decisions via
EasyChair in late May 2018.
Potential chairs are encouraged to contact the CP 2018 Program Chair, John
Hooker, by email (jh38@andrew.cmu.edu) to propose a topic or discuss ideas
for topics. We would like to finalize the list of tracks by November 15 so
that a timely call for papers can be issued.
