+        This function attempts to determine why a given model is infeasible. It deploys
+        two main algorithms:
+
+        1. Relaxes the constraints of the problem, and reports to the user
+           some sets of constraints and variable bounds, which when relaxed, creates a
+           feasible model.
+        2. Uses the information collected from (1) to attempt to compute a Minimal
+           Infeasible System (MIS), which is a set of constraints and variable bounds
+           which appear to be in conflict with each other. It is minimal in the sense
+           that removing any single constraint or variable bound would result in a
