Arc-Consistency for a Chain of Lexicographic Ordering Constraints

open access: yes, 2002
We present an arc-consistency algorithm for a chain of lexicographic ordering constraints on $m$ vectors of $n$ variables each. The algorithm maintains arc-consistency and runs in $O(nmd)$ time per invocation, where $d$ is the cost of certain domain
