The frameworks dedicated to the representation of quantitative temporal constraint satisfaction problems, as rich as they are in terms of expressiveness, define difficult requests - typically NP-complete decision problems. It is therefore adventurous to use them for an online resolution. Hence the idea to compile the original problem into a form that could be easily solved. Difference Decision Diagrams (DDDs) have been proposed by [1] as a possible way to cope with this difficulty, following a compilation-based approach. In this article, we draw a compilation map that evaluates the relative capabilities of these languages (TCSP, STP, DTP and DDD) in terms of algorithmic efficiency, succinctness and expressiveness.
