We are interested in papers related to various forms of constraint programming.

To join the mailing list, please email Alexandra (alexia at cs). Everyone is welcome to join, but those who attend should participate. Every week one of us will lead the discussion on that week's paper, and everyone will be expected to take a turn.

We are currently meeting in PT378, time TBA
