The abstract follows.
Constraint Programming has been very successful in solving scheduling 
problems. In this talk we present a number of case studies from a user's 
perspective, focusing on how to develop a solution with off-the-shelf 
tools, rather than on the underlying technology. We discuss issues of 
tool choice, modeling approaches, visualization, and overall integration 
on sample problems. The first case study is a complex scheduling and 
planning problem for Siemens Energy, developed within the ASSISTANT 
European project. The second example looks at models for a Hospital 
Integrated Resource Management problem, based on the IHTC competition of 
2024. The third case study is a generic scheduling tool which we have 
developed to provide a simple-to-use solution for small to medium sized 
scheduling problems.

The next talk in our series will be Kevin Schewior (University of 
Cologne) | March 18 | Combinatorial Perpetual Scheduling.
