The following are archives that contain constraint-related material. Most of the archives are anonymous ftp sites. Mark_Kantrowitz@cs.cmu.edu has created an AI ftp repository. ftp.cs.cmu.edu:/user/ai See also PTF below. Constraint Programming Paper Archive: Aarhus University, Denmark, has established an anonymous ftp archive for papers on "Constraint Programming" at ftp.daimi.aau.dk:/pub/CLP/ For further information, contact Brian H. Mayoh <brian@daimi.aau.dk>. Original Constraint Logic Programming Bibliography: [A more recent, larger, version is available on the ftp site for this FAQ: ftp.cs.city.ac.uk:/pub/constraints/bibliography/] ftp archive.cis.ohio-state.edu:/pub/clp (128.146.8.52) cd pub/clp or cd pub/clp/{bib,papers} Originally maintained by Spiro Michaylov <spiro@cis.ohio-state.edu> Constraints Bibliography: ftp ??? [any offers?] ??? Maintained by ??? Manfred Meyer's constraints bibliography may be made available soon. It, and other useful items concerning constraints, may be found on the City University ftp site where this FAQ is stored. See topic [1-1]. ECRC tech reports are available by anonymous ftp from ftp.ecrc.de or http://www.ecrc.de/ on WWW. FAQs on Linear and Non-Linear programming written by John Gregory <jwg@ceres.cray.com> for the sci.op-research newsgroup are posted there and are available from rtfm.mit.edu directory /pub/usenet/sci.answers/ in files linear-programming-faq and nonlinear-programming-faq. ICOT: Japan's Institute for New Generation Computer Technology (ICOT) has made their software available to the public free of charge. The collection includes a variety of prolog-based programs in symbol processing, knowledge representation, reasoning and problem solving, natural language processing. All programs are available by anonymous ftp from ftp.icot.or.jp. Note that most of the programs are written for the PSI machines, and very few have been ported to Unix-based emulators. Some languages are discussed in section [2-1] in part2 of this FAQ; for further information, send email to ifs@icot.or.jp, or write to ICOT Free Software Desk, Institute for New Generation Computer Technology, 21st Floor, Mita Kokusai Bldg., 4-28, Mita 1-chome, Minato-ku, Tokyo 108, Japan, fax +81-3-4456-1618.
