[gecode-users] Introductions

[Martin Mann]

Hi Joe,

I found the "Online Guide to Constraint Programming" by Roman Bartak 
quite usefull for an introduction.
http://kti.mff.cuni.cz/~bartak/constraints/

But it doesnt correspond to all details of the Gecode architecture and 
is a general introduction into constraint programming terms and 
algorithms. But knowing this it should be easy to solve your own 
constraint problems using the Gecode libs.

Unfortunatly, up to now there exists no general introduction into the 
Gecode propagation and search stuff. But as far as I know it is in 
preparation.
Maybe the publications will help you:
http://www.gecode.org/publications.html

Hope that's what you are looking for,

Martin
