  • Abstract
    Algorithms for analyzing systems of inequalities with min/max constraints that arise in interface timing specifications are examined. A general form of the inequality is shown to be NP-complete, but some interesting special cases can be solved efficiently. A branch-and-bound solution to the general case is developed and applied to a previously published example
