Comment. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Natural Constraint Language seems to be closely related. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 14:32, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Agree, it makes sense to discuss the two together. I think all the comments made so far at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Natural Constraint Language apply to Mixed Set Programming also. Jowa fan (talk) 07:04, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I don't see independent coverage. FuFoFuEd (talk) 10:35, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The page POEM (software) should also be included in this discussion. Jowa fan (talk) 12:15, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for pointing that one out also. I've nominated it for deletion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/POEM (software). Msnicki (talk) 14:01, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not delete the article "Mixed Set Programming" or merge it into "Natural Constraint Language" because MSP is an even more generic and more abstract scientific concept than NCL. Contributions are welcome. MSP is a very advanced subject to be studied. MSP allows a mathematician to formulate complex problems in a simplified form of mathematical logic (first-order logic, set theoretic reasoning, date/time reasoning, etc.). In this sense, it is a scientific pearl. If so advanced a technology can be applied in industry, it is great. Other words to add are: the concepts of "Mixed Set Programming" and "Natural Constraint Language" are purely scientific concepts, while "POEM" is an industrialized system of the NCL language.
