Abstract

In the present article, we consider the method of subdefinite computations, which can be regarded as a branch of constraint propagation, and describe how the techniques of computer algebra can be applied to improve the efficiency of the method. The article also presents the UniCalc problem solver which is based on the method of subdefinite computations. In conclusion, we present some examples that demonstrate the capabilities of the solver and the results of using symbolic transformations.
