The set of OCFs accepting all conditionals in a knowledge base R can be specified as the solutions of a constraint satisfaction problem CR(R). In this paper, we present three optimizations of a high-level, declarative CLP program solving CR(R) and illustrate the benefits of these optimizations by various examples.enStepwise optimization of a constraint logic program for the computation of ranking functionsText/Conference Paper1617-5468
