....we show on some examples that the greater flexibility of the relational optimization scheme is not at the cost of efficiency. We have used the current implementation to resolve a real life preference problem consisting of allocating bands of frequencies from a radio spectre to a set of networks [7]. In this problem, preferences between solutions depend on several conflictual criteria. In the rest of the paper we review the basic ideas of constraint hierarchies before presenting HCLP languages. We then present relational optimization. We compare the advantages and disadvantages of the two ....

....well with the HCLP implementation of [14] 5. 2 An application to multiple criteria preference problems The comparative approach introduced by the use of rules to define the relationships between solutions (better) greatly enlarges the techniques that we may use for multiple criteria optimization [7]. Sequential elimination methods [11] may be used in this framework. Sequential elimination methods are based on comparing solutions on the basis of the values of their attributes and eliminating inferior solutions. The comparative nature of these methods makes it easier to represent expert ....
