Computer science description: We propose an algebraic approach to the design and transformation of constraint networks, inspired by Architectural Design Rewriting. The approach can be understood as (i) an extension of ADR with constraints, and (ii) an application of ADR to the design of reconfigurable constraint networks. The main idea is to consider classes of constraint networks as algebras whose operators are used to denote constraint networks with terms. Constraint network transformations such as constraint propagations are specified with rewrite rules exploiting the network’s structure provided by terms. date: 2013-07 type: Working Paper type: NonPeerReviewed format: application/pdf language: en identifier: http://eprints.imtlucca.it/1649/1/pk65.pdf identifier: Bruni, Roberto and Lluch-Lafuente, Alberto and Montanari, Ugo Constraint Design Rewriting.
