The Adaptive Constraint Engine (ACE) seeks to automate the application of constraint programming expertise and the extraction of domain-specific expertise. Under the aegis of FORR, an architecture for learning and problem-solving, ACE learns search-order heuristics from problem solving experience. This paper describes ACE’s approach, as well as new experimental results on specific problem classes. ACE is both a test-bed for CSP research and a discovery environment for new algorithms.
