Worst-case circuit analysis (WCCA or WCA) is a cost-effective means of screening a design to ensure with a high degree of confidence that potential defects...

Worst case analysis was, from 1978 until 1986, a doctrine under 40 U.S.C. § 1502.22 which mandated that an environmental impact statement include such...

which results in some buckets containing more elements than average. The worst-case scenario occurs when all the elements are placed in a single bucket. The...

The worst-case analysis regulation was promulgated in 1979 by the US Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ). The regulation is one of many implementing...

motivation for amortized analysis is that looking at the worst-case run time can be too pessimistic. Instead, amortized analysis averages the running times...

A worst-case scenario is a concept in risk management wherein the planner, in planning for potential disasters, considers the most severe possible outcome...

operations proportional to the number n of items, in the worst case as well as in the average case. Useful search data structures allow faster retrieval;...

with no isolated vertices the algorithm runs in expected time O(m). The worst case runtime is equivalent to the runtime of Borůvka's algorithm. This occurs...

efficient in a worst-case sense: by a result of Moon & Moser (1965), any n-vertex graph has at most 3n/3 maximal cliques, and the worst-case running time...

software worst case execution time can be determined, then the designer of the system can use this with other techniques such as schedulability analysis to...

algorithms are analysed for average-case and worst-case data. Competitive analysis is a way of doing worst case analysis for on-line and randomized algorithms...
