In this paper we demonstrate several examples of solving challenging algorithmic problems from the Google Code Jam programming contest with the Prolog-based ECLiPSe system using declarative techniques like constraint logic programming and linear (integer) programming. These problems were designed to be solved by inventing clever algorithms and efficiently implementing them in a conventional imperative programming language, but we present relatively simple declarative programs in ECLiPSe that are fast enough to find answers within the time limit imposed by the contest rules. We claim that declarative programming with ECLiPSe is better suited for solving certain common kinds of programming problems offered in Google Code Jam than imperative programming. We show this by comparing the mental steps required to come up with both kinds of solutions.

In this paper we present several examples of solving algorithmic problems from the Google Code Jam programming contest with Picat programming language using declarative techniques: constraint logic programming and tabled logic programming. In some ca
ses the use of Picat simplifies the implementation compared to conventional imperative programming languages, while in others it allows to directly convert the problem statement into an efficiently solvable declarative problem specification without inventing an imperative algorithm.
Gecode is one of the most efficient libraries that can be used for constraint solving. However, using it requires dealing with C++ programming details. On the other hand several formats for representing constraint networks have been proposed. Among t
hem, XCSP has been proposed as a format based on XML which allows us to represent constraints defined either extensionally or intensionally, permits global constraints and has been the standard format of the international competition of constraint satisfaction problems solvers. In this paper we present a plug-in for solving problems specified in XCSP by exploiting the Gecode solver. This is done by dynamically translating constraints into Gecode library calls, thus avoiding the need to interact with C++.
The purpose of this paper is to present some functionalities of the HyperPro System. HyperPro is a hypertext tool which allows to develop Constraint Logic Programming (CLP) together with their documentation. The text editing part is not new and is ba
sed on the free software Thot. A HyperPro program is a Thot document written in a report style. The tool is designed for CLP but it can be adapted to other programming paradigms as well. Thot offers navigation and editing facilities and synchronized static document views. HyperPro has new functionalities such as document exportations, dynamic views (projections), indexes and version management. Projection is a mechanism for extracting and exporting relevant pieces of code program or of document according to specific criteria. Indexes are useful to find the references and occurrences of a relation in a document, i.e., where its predicate definition is found and where a relation is used in other programs or docume
B-Prolog is a high-performance implementation of the standard Prolog language with several extensions including matching clauses, action rules for event handling, finite-domain constraint solving, arrays and hash tables, declarative loop constructs,
and tabling. The B-Prolog system is based on the TOAM architecture which differs from the WAM mainly in that (1) arguments are passed old-fashionedly through the stack, (2) only one frame is used for each predicate call, and (3) instructions are provided for encoding matching trees. The most recent architecture, called TOAM Jr., departs further from the WAM in that it employs no registers for arguments or temporary variables, and provides variable-size instructions for encoding predicate calls. This paper gives an overview of the language features and a detailed description of the TOAM Jr. architecture, including architectural support for action rules and tabling.
We present a set of rules for compiling a Dalvik bytecode program into a logic program with array constraints. Non-termination of the resulting program entails that of the original one, hence the techniques we have presented before for proving non-te
rmination of constraint logic programs can be used for proving non-termination of Dalvik programs.
