Description for Constraint Programming in Music
Hardback. Constraint programming (CP) is a declarative programming paradigm that has relevance for academics and industrial applications (from n-queens to planning, vehicle routing, and optimization, among other fields). This book presents the most current information about musical CP systems from both the scientist's and composer's point-of-view. Editor(s): Truchet, Charlotte; Assayag, Gerard. Num Pages: 244 pages, Illustrations, music. BIC Classification: AVA. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 240 x 160 x 26. Weight in Grams: 600.
Constraint programming (CP) is a declarative programming paradigm with many academic and industrial applications (from n-queens to planning, vehicle routing, and optimization, among other fields). Music composition has been one of these applications since the earliest works on automatic harmonization, and it remains a very special and challenging one due to its artistic (and highly subjective) nature. The early works on CP in music were limited to classical music composition, as the harmonization and counterpoint rules naturally translate into constraints. However, when contemporary composers began to be interested in constraints, CP became an essential tool in computer-assisted composition systems. As ... Read more
