Timed Soft Concurrent Constraint Programs
, 2008 We propose a timed and soft extension of Concurrent Constraint Programming. The time extension is based on the hypothesis of bounded asynchrony: the computation takes a bounded period of time and is measured by a discrete global clock. Action pre¯xing is then con- sidered as the syntactic marker which distinguishes a time instant from the next one ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.It is shown that laser ablation pretreatment under oxygen‐free conditions enables copper–aluminium bonding at significantly lower deformation degrees and improved properties compared to mechanical brushing. Laser ablation further increases interface contact area and induces favourable residual stress states and microstructural compatibility ...

Modeling the problem of courses timetabling in a small educational institute [PDF]
Muṭāli̒āt-i Mudīriyyat-i Ṣan̒atī, 2006 In this paper, we will consider the problem of courses timetabling in a small educational institute. We will present the mathematical model considering six hard constraints (compelling constraints) and five soft constraints (constraints that are lot ...

Decentralized Financing, Centralized Financing and the Dual Track System: Toward a New Theory of Soft Budget Constraints [PDF]
, 2000 I put forward a new theoretical framework to analyze the relationship between soft budget constraint syndrome and the economic performances of firms. It differs from the existing theoretical framework, à la Dewatripont and Maskin (1995), in the soft ...
