Title page; Table of Contents; Introduction; Interval Constraints; Constraint Satisfaction Problems; Interval Analysis; Constraint Propagation; Partial Consistencies; Global Hull-Consistency; Local Search; Experimental Results; Interval Constraints for Differential Equations; Ordinary Differential Equations; Constraint Satisfaction Differential Problems; Solving a CSDP; Biomedical Decision Support with ODEs; Conclusions and Future Work; References; Appendix A: Interval Analysis Theorems; Appendix B: Constraint Propagation Theorems

Sommario/riassunto

Focuses on the integration of ordinary differential equations within the interval constraints framework, which for this purpose is extended with the formalism of Constraint Satisfaction Differential Problems. Such a framework allows the specification of ordinary differential equations by means of constraints.

Sommario/riassunto

IMPROVE stands for "Information Technology Support for Collaborative and Distributed Design Processes in Chemical Engineering" and is a large joint project of research institutions at RWTH Aachen University. This volume summarizes the results after 9 years of cooperative research work. The focus of IMRPOVE is on understanding, formalizing, evaluating, and, consequently, improving design processes in chemical engineering. In particular, IMPROVE focuses on conceptual design and basic engineering, where the fundamental decisions concerning the design or redesign of a chemical plant are undertaken. Design processes are analyzed and evaluated in collaboration with industrial partners.
