Abstract
In this paper, we study the problem of solving integer range constraints that arise in many static program analysis problems. In particular, we present the first polynomial time algorithm for a general class of integer range constraints. In contrast with abstract interpretation techniques based on widenings and narrowings, our algorithm computes, in polynomial time, the optimal solution of the arising fixpoint equations. Our result implies that “precise” range analysis can be performed in polynomial time without widening and narrowing operations.
