摘要
MiniZinc is a modelling language for combinatorial problems, which can then be solved by a solver provided in a backend. There are many backends, based on technologies such as constraint programming, integer programming, or Boolean satisfiability solving. However, to the best of our knowledge, there is currently no constraint-based local search (CBLS) backend. We discuss the challenges to develop such a backend and give an overview of the design of a CBLS backend for MiniZinc. Experimental results show that for some MiniZinc models, our CBLS backend, based on the OscaR/CBLS solver, is able to give good-quality results in competitive time.
