Constraint Logic Programming in Prolog: Hanjie Puzzle Solver Lu´ıs Cleto and Jo˜ao Marinheiro FEUP-PLOG‚ Turma 3MIEIC05‚ Group 23 {ei11077‚ei11129}@fe.up.pt http://www.fe.up.pt Abstract. The purpose of this project was to use constraint logic programming in Prolog to implement a solver for the 2D puzzle‚ Hanjie. For this purpose we used the clp(FD) library provided by SICStus Prolog 4.2.3‚ specifically the sum/3 and automaton/3 combinatorial constraints. The program we developed is able

FORECASTING Managers are always trying to reduce uncertainty and make better estimates of what will happen in the future; this is the main purpose of forecasting. Some firms use subjective methods‚ seat-of-the pants methods‚ intuition‚ and experience. There are also several quantitative techniques‚ moving averages‚ exponential smoothing‚ trend projections‚ and least squares regression analysis. Eight steps to forecasting: * Determine the use of the forecast—what objective are we trying to
