The Art of Computer Programming is a multivolume work on the analysis of algorithms with volumes 1, 2, 3, 4A, and 4B published so far. To continue the set, and to update parts of the existing volumes, Donald Knuth has created a series of small books called fascicles, which are published at regular intervals. Volume 4, Fascicle 7 forms the first third of what will eventually become hardcover Volume 4C. <ASIN:0135328241> It introduces and explores an important general framework for modeling and solving combinatorial problems, called the Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP), showing how the CSP framework is tied to dozens of other parts of computer science: Scene analysis (computer vision); efficient algorithms that embed one graph in another; fascinating instances of "graceful graphs"; new ways to look ahead when backtracking; new heuristics to guide a search that backtracks through a massive space of possibilities; situations when backtracking isn't necessary. Author: Donald E. Knuth
