The concept is called "gist" in Omega, and simplification under a context in PolyLib. You'd like to run the simplification with the assumption that some constraints are already enforced, and only retain the additional constraints (minimized) to define a given sub-polyhedron.
Hi Albert,
we need to have a more precise specification of the required operation. In particular, for the simplification of { A <= 0 } under the context
I assume you mean { A = 0 } here (as { A <= 0 } is not a subset of {A >= 0}).
I don't follow: why should the first polyhedron (the one to simplify) be a subset of the second polyhedron (the context)?
{ A >= 0 }, what do you consider simpler?
Possibility 1: { A <= 0 } Possibility 2: { A = 0 }.
I asked the same question on the polylib mailing list many years ago but got no answer.
I see. However, I am interested in understanding the real needs of Cloog independently from what PolyLib does. Cheers,
Roberto
