A Commentary on "Breaking Row and Column Symmetries in Matrix Models"

The CP 2002 paper entitled "Breaking Row and Column Symmetries in Matrix Models" by Flener et al. [6] describes some of the first work for identifying and analyzing row and column symmetry in mat rix models and for efficiently and effectively dealing with such symmetry u sing static symmetry-breaking ordering constraints. This commentary provides a retrospective on that work and highlights some of the subsequent work on the topic.
