EPTCS 5
Proceedings 6th International Workshop on
Local Search Techniques in Constraint Satisfaction
Lisbon, Portugal, 20 September 2009
Edited by: Yves Deville and Christine Solnon
LSCS is a satellite workshop of the international conference on
principles and practice of Constraint Programming (CP), since 2004. It
is devoted to local search techniques in constraint satisfaction, and
focuses on all aspects of local search techniques, including: design
and implementation of new algorithms, hybrid stochastic-systematic
search, reactive search optimization, adaptive search, modeling for
local-search, global constraints, flexibility and robustness, learning
methods, and specific applications.
In 2009, there was five long presentations of 30 minutes, and three
short presentations of 15 minutes. The workshop programme also
included an invited talk by Thomas Stützle on Engineering
Stochastic Local Search.
We thank all reviewers who provided valuable remarks on the submitted
papers, and CP organisers for their material support.
