Combinatorial Optimisation and Constraint Programming (course 1DL442): Autumn 2024

This 10-credit course was last given in 2024, so this page is for only archival purposes. The first half of the course continues to exist as the 5-credit course Modelling for Combinatorial Optimisation (course 1DL451), which you are invited to look at.

MiniCP

In Part 2 of Course 1DL442, we use MiniCP, a white-box bottom-up teaching framework for CP implemented in Java (free; open-source):

• We have prepared some exercises on lambda expressions (no hand-in!) and strongly recommend you do them as soon as possible after the first lecture on MiniCP; solutions will appear there in due time

• Other than at the warm-up and help sessions, and only time permitting, we unfortunately have no resources to provide any support for installing MiniCP and a suitable IDE (we recommend IntelliJ) on your own computer
