The International Conference on Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming will take place in Stamford, Connecticut, U.S. from Sep 30, 2019, to Oct 4, 2019. The main conference program will be held at UCONN Stamford.

This is the 25th edition of the annual conference on all aspects of computing with constraints, including theory, algorithms, environments, languages, models, systems, and applications such as decision making, resource allocation, scheduling, configuration, and planning. The Association for Constraint Programming has a list of previous conferences in this series.

The CP 2019 program will include presentations of high-quality scientific papers on constraints technology. In addition to the usual technical track, the CP 2019 conference will feature thematic tracks. Each track has a specific sub-committee to make sure that competent reviewers will review the papers submitted by people of these domains.
