This book constitutes the proceedings of the 20th International Conference on the Integration of Constraint Programming, Artificial Intelligence, and Operations Research, CPAIOR 2022, held in Nice, France, during May 29–June 1, 2023.The 26 full papers and the 6 short papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 71 submissions. The content of the papers present new techniques or new applications, and provide an opportunity for researchers in one area to learn about techniques in the others. Besides they give researchers the opportunity to show how the integration of techniques from different fields can lead to interesting results on large and complex problems.

This book introduces a novel approach to discrete optimization, providing both theoretical insights and algorithmic developments that lead to improvements over state-of-the-art technology. The authors present chapters on the use of decision diagrams for combinatorial optimization and constraint programming, with attention to general-purpose solution methods as well as problem-specific techniques.The book will be useful for researchers and practitioners in discrete optimization and constraint programming. "Decision Diagrams for Optimization is one of the most exciting developments emerging from constraint programming in recent years. This book is a compelling summary of existing results in this space and a must-read for optimizers around the world." [Pascal Van Hentenryck]
