Abstract: In this paper, we consider the optimal sequencing of vehicles
along multiple assembly lines. We present a constraint-based model of the
problem with hard and soft constraints. An advantage of a constraintbased
approach is that the model is declarative and there is a separation
between the model and an algorithm for solving the model. As a result,
once the model had been dened, we could experiment with dierent
algorithms for solving the model, with few or no changes to the model
itself. ... (Update)
