Constraint may refer to: *
Constraint (computer-aided design) A constraint in computer-aided design (CAD) software is a limitation or restriction imposed by a designer or an engineer upon geometric properties of an entity of a design model that maintains its structure as the model is manipulated. These prop ...
, a demarcation of geometrical characteristics between two or more entities or solid modeling bodies *
Constraint (mathematics) In mathematics, a constraint is a condition of an optimization problem that the solution must satisfy. There are several types of constraints—primarily equality constraints, inequality constraints, and integer constraints. The set of can ...
, a condition of an optimization problem that the solution must satisfy *
Constraint (classical mechanics) In classical mechanics, a constraint on a system is a parameter that the system must obey. For example, a box sliding down a slope must remain on the slope. There are two different types of constraints: holonomic and non-holonomic. Types of co ...
, a relation between coordinates and momenta *
Constraint (information theory) Constraint in information theory is the degree of statistical dependence between or among variables. Garner Garner W R (1962). ''Uncertainty and Structure as Psychological Concepts'', John Wiley & Sons, New York. provides a thorough discussion of v ...
, the degree of statistical dependence between or among variables * ''Constraints'' (journal), a scientific journal *
Constraint (database) A relational database is a (most commonly digital) database based on the relational model of data, as proposed by E. F. Codd in 1970. A system used to maintain relational databases is a relational database management system (RDBMS). Many relati ...
, a concept in relational database
