English term or phrase: corner cases
In the following context, what is an established rendering in Japanese?

-----------------------
It allows us to ensure that each IP block is correctly integrated in the system and to determine system performance such as average throughput of each AHB bus, or interrupt latency for all possible corner cases of the system.
-----------------------
My tentative translation is:
「システム内で各IPブロックが適切に集約されていることを確認し、システムで考えられるあらゆるcorner casesを対象とした各AHBバスの平均スループットや割り込み遅延のようなシステム・パフォーマンスを決定することができます」

Japanese translation:コーナーケース、最悪の状況（意訳）
Explanation:
In such a usage, ‘corner’ means “a predicament from which a skillful or graceful escape is impossible” (WordNet). Refer to the links below.

It almost seems superfluous to say that I think in this sentence the phrase “for all possible corner cases of the system” modies only “interrupt latency”.
Therefore, my translation is:

「各AHBバスの平均スループットや、システムに起こりうる最悪の状況における割り込み遅延のような…」
