Nurse rostering in Google CP Solver.
This is a simple nurse rostering model using a DFA and my decomposition of regular constraint.
The DFA is from MiniZinc Tutorial, Nurse Rostering example:
This model was created by Hakan Kjellerstrand ([email protected]) Also see my other Google CP Solver models: http://www.hakank.org/google_or_tools/

# Global constraint regular
#
# This is a translation of MiniZinc's regular constraint (defined in
# lib/zinc/globals.mzn), via the Comet code refered above.
# All comments are from the MiniZinc code.
# '''
# The sequence of values in array 'x' (which must all be in the range 1..S)
# is accepted by the DFA of 'Q' states with input 1..S and transition
# function 'd' (which maps (1..Q, 1..S) -> 0..Q)) and initial state 'q0'
# (which must be in 1..Q) and accepting states 'F' (which all must be in
# 1..Q). We reserve state 0 to be an always failing state.

# d2 is the same as d, except we add one extra transition for
# each possible input; each extra transition is from state zero
