The CP conference is the annual international conference on constraint
programming. It is concerned with all aspects of computing with
constraints, including
theory, algorithms, applications, environments,
languages, models, and systems.
CP 2008 includes a technical program, where presentations of research and
application papers as well as invited talks aim at describing the best
results and techniques in the state-of-the-art of constraint programming.
Two days of workshops, tutorials and the Doctoral Program will precede
the conference.
Papers are solicited from all disciplines concerned with constraints.
Reports on successful applications of constraint technology are
particularly encouraged and are subject to special Applications track
acceptance criteria. Submitted papers must be original and must not be
simultaneously submitted for publication in a journal or another
conference. The conference proceedings are expected to be published by
Springer Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. Papers
