More information about the conference can be found at the Web site: http://www.cs.brown.edu/sites/cpaior07/Welcome.html. There were 80 submissions and each submission was reviewed by at least three Program Committee members. After careful consideration and discussion, the committee decided to accept 28 papers (one of which was withdrawn just be- fore the publication of the proceedings). The papers submitted this year were of high quality and representative of a vibrant, multi-disciplinary community at the intersection of artificial intelligence, constraint programming, and opera- tions research.The programalso included three invited talks and two tutorials. We were extremely pleased that Claude Le Pape, George Nemhauser, and Bart Selman accepted our invitation to be invited speakers at the conference.

We consider the problem of decomposing an integer ma- trix into a positively weighted sum of binary matrices that have the consecutive-ones property. This problem is well-known and of practical relevance. It has an important application in cancer radiation therapy treatment planning: the sequencing of multileaf collimators to deliver a given radiation intensity matrix, representing (a component of) the treatment plan. Two criteria characterise the efficacy of a decomposition: the beam- on time (length of time the radiation source is switched on during the treatment),andthecardinality (thenumberofmachineset-upsrequired to deliver theplanned treatment). Minimisingtheformerisknowntobeeasy.Howeverfindingadecom- position of minimal cardinality is NP-hard. Progress so far has largely been restricted to heuristic algorithms, mostly using linear program- ming, integer programming and combinatorial enumerative methods as the solving technologies. We present a novel model, with correspond- ing constraint programming and integerprogramming formulations. We comparethesecomputationallywithpreviousformulations,andweshow that constraint programming performs very well bycomparison. 1 Introduction The problem of decomposing an integer matrix into a weighted sum of binary matrices has received much attention in recent years, largely due to its applica- tion in radiation treatment for cancer. Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) has been increasingly used for the treatmentofa varietyofcancers[17]. This treatmentapproachemploys two devices that allow higher doses of radiation to be administered to the tumour, while decreasing the exposure of sensitive organs (Fig. 1). The first is that the sourceof radiationcanbe rotatedabout the body of the patient:by positioning the tumour at a “focal point”, and aiming the radiation beam at this point from various angles, the tumour receives a high dose from all angles, while the surrounding tissue only gets high exposure from some angles.
