Computational Phonology: A Constraint-Based Approach (Steven Bird),
  Studies in Natural Language Processing, Cambridge University
  Press, ISBN 0-521-47496-5 (hardback), 1995.

  Computational phonology is one of the newest areas of computational
  linguistics, and is experiencing rapid growth as its practitioners
  apply the wealth of theories, technologies and methodologies of
  computational linguistics to phonology.  This book is the first to
  survey these developments, and it does so in a way that is accessible
  to computational linguists, phonologists and computer scientists
  alike.  The interests of these diverse groups overlap in the subject
  area of constraints.  The goal of this book is to explore the use of
  constraints in modern non-linear phonology and then - drawing on
  insights from constraint-based grammar and constraint logic
  programming - to formalise and implement a constraint-based
  phonology.
