Resumen

the amount of resources consumed in the worst case. However, it has become evident that the instance size by itself is an insufficient measure and that the worst-case scenario is often unin-formative in practice. As a complementary analysis, we propose the examination of structural properties present in the instances and the effects they have on algorithm performance; our goal is to characterize complexity in terms of instance structure. We propose a framework for identifying and characterizing hard instances based on algorithm behaviour as well as a case study applying the framework on the graph coloring problem.
