Abstract: Constraint networks over relation algebras are defined. Compass algebras
are introduced for reasoning about space. They are related to the interval
algebras, which are used for reasoning about time. The problem of determining
whether a network has a closed zeroless reduction is shown to NP-complete for almost
all compass and interval algebras. This implies constraint satisfaction for these
algebras is NP-complete.
