Preface
Constraints are a natural means of knowledge representation. This generality underpins the success with which constraint programming has been applied to a wide variety of disciplines in academia and industry such as production planning, communication networks, robotics, and bioinformatics. This volume contains the extended and reviewed version of a selection of papers presented at the Joint ERCIM/CoLogNET International Workshop on Constraint Solving and Constraint Logic Programming (CSCLP 2005), which was held during June 20–22, 2005 in Uppsala, Sweden. It also contains papers that were submitted in response to the open call that followed the workshop. The papers in this volume present research results regarding many aspects of constraint solving and constraint logic programming. This includes global constraints, search and heuristics, implementations of constraint systems, and a numb
