....Independent of logic programming, constraints have proven useful for a variety of applications, including geometric layout, physical simulations, user interface design, document formatting, algorithm animation, and design and analysis of mechanical devices and electrical circuits. See for example [2, 3, 8, 13, 21, 22, 24, 27, 29, 33, 34, 35, 36], and [23] for a survey. Many such applications require some notion of defaults and preferences. If we wish to make full use of the constraint paradigm, we need ways to represent these defaults and preferences declaratively, as constraints, rather than encoding them in the procedural parts of the ....

.... 47, 49, 35, 20, 2, 4, 22, 37] Because of their utility, dataflow constraints are now used in a wide variety of interactive applications, including spreadsheets, graphical interface toolkits [35, 2, 20, 27, 46, 47, 36, 34, 22] graphical layout systems [18] simulation systems [3, 4] animations [12], imperative programming languages [14, 33] and programming environments [37] QuickPlan 4 3 Why Multi Output, Multi Way Dataflow Constraints are Important One way constraints handle many aspects of interactive applications well. However, as pointed out in the introduction, one way ....
