Abstract :
Although the mixed μ problem is NP hard and exact general computation is futile, computation of bounds is reasonable and useful. This paper presents a new scheme for lower bound computation for the mixed μ problem. Extensive tests on particularly difficult problems show that this new scheme is a substantial improvement over previous algorithms
