Abstract: Cryptarithmetic is a class of constraint satisfaction problems which includes making mathematical relations between meaningful words using simple arithmetic operators like `plus' in a way ...

Abstract: The premiss that a group of cooperating agents - a collective brain - can solve a problem more efficiently than the same group of agents working independently is widespread, despite the ...

Verbal arithmetic, also known as alphametics, cryptarithmetic, cryptarithm or word addition, is a type of mathematical game consisting of a mathematical equation among unknown numbers, whose digits ...

Constraint optimization is a technique of identifying feasible solutions out of a large set of variables where the problem is modelled in terms of arbitrary constraints. A classic example of ...
