Field Detail

c

public double c

It specifies the constant to which a specified variable should be equal to.

p

public FloatVar p

It specifies the variable which is constrained to be equal to the specified value.

pmlAttributes

public static String[] pmlAttributes

It specifies the arguments required to be saved by an PML format as well as the constructor being called to recreate an object from an PML format.

Constructor Detail

PeqC

public PeqC(FloatVar p,
            double c)

It constructs the constraint P = C.

Parameters:

p - variable p.

c - constant c.

Method Detail

arguments

public ArrayList<Var> arguments()

Description copied from class: Constraint

It returns the variables in a scope of the constraint.

Specified by:

arguments in class Constraint

Returns:

variables in a scope of the constraint.

consistency

public void consistency(Store store)

Description copied from class: Constraint

It is a (most probably incomplete) consistency function which removes the values from variables domains. Only values which do not have any support in a solution space are removed.

Specified by:

consistency in class Constraint

Parameters:

store - constraint store within which the constraint consistency is being checked.

notConsistency

public void notConsistency(Store store)

Description copied from class: PrimitiveConstraint

It makes pruning in such a way that constraint is notConsistent. It removes values which always belong to a solution.

Specified by:

notConsistency in class PrimitiveConstraint

Parameters:

store - the constraint store in which context the notConsistency technique is evaluated.

satisfied

public boolean satisfied()

Description copied from class: Constraint

It checks if the constraint is satisfied. If this function is incorrectly implemented a constraint may not be satisfied in a solution.

Specified by:

satisfied in class Constraint

Returns:

true if the constraint is for certain satisfied, false otherwise.

notSatisfied

public boolean notSatisfied()

Description copied from class: PrimitiveConstraint

It checks if constraint would be always not satisfied.

Specified by:

notSatisfied in class PrimitiveConstraint

Returns:

true if constraint must be notSatisfied, false otherwise.

getNestedPruningEvent

public int getNestedPruningEvent(Var var,
                                 boolean mode)

Description copied from class: PrimitiveConstraint

It retrieves the pruning event for which any composed constraint which uses this constraint should be evaluated. This events are the ones which can change satisfied status?

Specified by:

getNestedPruningEvent in class PrimitiveConstraint

Parameters:

var - for which pruning event is retrieved

mode - decides if pruning event for consistency or nonconsistency is required.

Returns:

pruning event associated with the given variable for a given consistency mode.

getConsistencyPruningEvent

public int getConsistencyPruningEvent(Var var)

Description copied from class: Constraint

It retrieves the pruning event which causes reevaluation of the constraint.

Specified by:

getConsistencyPruningEvent in class Constraint

Parameters:

var - variable for which pruning event is retrieved

Returns:

it returns the int code of the pruning event (GROUND, BOUND, ANY, NONE)

getNotConsistencyPruningEvent

public int getNotConsistencyPruningEvent(Var var)

Description copied from class: PrimitiveConstraint

It retrieves the pruning event which causes reevaluation of the constraint notConsistency() function.

Specified by:

getNotConsistencyPruningEvent in class PrimitiveConstraint

Parameters:

var - for which pruning event is retrieved

Returns:

the int denoting the pruning event associated with given variable.

impose

public void impose(Store store)

Description copied from class: Constraint

It imposes the constraint in a given store.

Specified by:

impose in class Constraint

Parameters:

store - the constraint store to which the constraint is imposed to.

removeConstraint

public void removeConstraint()

Description copied from class: Constraint

It removes the constraint by removing this constraint from all variables.

Specified by:

removeConstraint in class Constraint

toString

public String toString()

Description copied from class: Constraint

It produces a string representation of a constraint state.

Specified by:

toString in class Constraint

increaseWeight

public void increaseWeight()

Description copied from class: Constraint

It increases the weight of the variables in the constraint scope.

Specified by:

increaseWeight in class Constraint

getC

public double getC()

It returns the constant to which a given variable should be equal to.

Returns:

the constant to which the variable should be equal to.
