Constraint programming (CP) is a powerful programming paradigm for
the declarativedescription and the e?ective solving of
largecombinatorialproblems.
Basedonastrongtheoreticalfoundation,itisincreasinglyattractingcommercial
interest. Since the 1990s, CP has been deployed by many industry
leaders, in particular to model heterogeneous optimization and
satisfaction problems. - amples of application domains where such
problems naturally arise, and where constraint programming has made
a valuable contribution, are scheduling, p- duction planning,
communication networks, routing, planning of satellite m- sions,
robotics, and bioinformatics. This volumecontainsthe papers
selectedfor the post-proceedingsof the13th International Workshop
on Constraint Solving and Constraint Logic Progr-
ming(CSCLP2008)heldduringJune18–20,2008inRome,Italy.Thisworkshop
was organized as the 13th meeting of the working group on
Constraints of the
EuropeanResearchConsortiumforInformaticsandMathematics(ERCIM),c-
tinuing a series of workshops organized since the creation of the
working group in 1997. A selection of papers of these annual
workshops plus some additional contributions have been published
since 2002 in a series of volumes which ill- trate the

Constraints” in the Lecture Notes in Arti?cial Intelligence series.
