Constraint solving for direct manipulation of features
نویسندگان
چکیده
In current commercial feature modeling systems, support for direct manipulation of features is not commonly available. This is partly due to the strong reliance of such systems on constraints, but also to the lack of speed of current constraint solvers. In this paper, an approach to the optimization of geometric constraint solving for direct manipulation of feature dimensions, orientation, and position is described. Details are provided on how this approach was successfully implemented in the Spiff feature modeling system.

Solving Disjunctive Constraints for Interactive Graphical Applications
In interactive graphical applications we often require that objects do not overlap. Such non-overlap constraints can be modelled as disjunctions of arithmetic inequalities. Unfortunately, disjunctions are typically not handled by constraint solvers that support direct manipulation, in part because solving such problems is NP-hard. We show here that is in fact possible to (re-)solve systems of d...
متن کاملDirect Manipulation of feature models using Handles
In feature based systems support for direct manipulation is not commonly available. This is partly due to the strong reliance of feature modelling systems on constraints and on the lack of speed of current constraint solv ers. In this paper an approach to the optimization of the geometric constraint solving for the specific situation of direct manipulation is described. Also a solution for a d...
متن کاملAn Object - Oriented Architecture forConstraint - Based Graphical
Direct-manipulation graphics editors are useful tools for a wide variety of domains such as technical drawing, computer-aided design, application building, and music composition. Constraints can be a powerful mechanism for specifying complex semantics declaratively in these domains. To date, few domain-speciic graphics editors have provided constraint-based speciication and manipulation facilit...
متن کاملSolving a New Multi-objective Inventory-Routing Problem by a Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm
This paper considers a multi-period, multi-product inventory-routing problem in a two-level supply chain consisting of a distributor and a set of customers. This problem is modeled with the aim of minimizing bi-objectives, namely the total system cost (including startup, distribution and maintenance costs) and risk-based transportation. Products are delivered to customers by some heterogeneous ...
متن کاملCan Constraint Induced Movement Therapy Improve In-Hand Manipulation Skills: A Single Subject Design
Objectives: This study describes a single subject design (ABA) that shows the effective use of constraint induced movement therapy in improvement of quality and performance of in-hand manipulation skills for a 10 year old boy and a 9 years old girl with hemiplegic cerebral palsy, as Dickerson (2007) showed it in arm movement and function. Methods: To determine the effectiveness of CIMT by th...
