Abstract :
After an introduction to constraint programming and the man power job shifting problem, we applied the constraint programming paradigm in the development of C code to make year wide calendars for a given prerequisites. We present a diagram of the program which shows a very efficient way to solve the problem. The resulting multi-shift calendars were well balanced between shifts and were produced in short computational time.
