In computer science, a program dependence graph (PDG) is a representation, using graph notation, that makes a program's dependencies (both data dependencies and control dependencies) explicit.[1] These dependencies are used during dependence analysis in optimizing compilers to make transformations so that multiple cores are used, and parallelism is improved.[2]
See: dependency graph.
