An example of a signal-flow graph Flow graph for three simultaneous equations. The edges incident on each node are colored differently just for emphasis. An example of a flow graph connected to some starting equations is presented. The set of equations should be consistent and linearly independent. An example of such a set is: [2]
In computer science, a control-flow graph (CFG) is a representation, using graph notation, of all paths that might be traversed through a program during its execution. The control-flow graph was discovered by Frances E. Allen , [ 1 ] who noted that Reese T. Prosser used boolean connectivity matrices for flow analysis before.
A feasible flow, or just a flow, is a pseudo-flow that, for all v ∈ V \{s, t}, satisfies the additional constraint: Flow conservation constraint : The total net flow entering a node v is zero for all nodes in the network except the source s {\displaystyle s} and the sink t {\displaystyle t} , that is: x f ( v ) = 0 for all v ∈ V \{ s , t } .
Data-flow analysis is a technique for gathering information about the possible set of values calculated at various points in a computer program.A program's control-flow graph (CFG) is used to determine those parts of a program to which a particular value assigned to a variable might propagate.
In combinatorial optimization, network flow problems are a class of computational problems in which the input is a flow network (a graph with numerical capacities on its edges), and the goal is to construct a flow, numerical values on each edge that respect the capacity constraints and that have incoming flow equal to outgoing flow at all vertices except for certain designated terminals.
The control-flow graph of the source code above; the red circle is the entry point of the function, and the blue circle is the exit point. The exit has been connected to the entry to make the graph strongly connected.
A signal-flow graph or signal-flowgraph (SFG), invented by Claude Shannon, [1] but often called a Mason graph after Samuel Jefferson Mason who coined the term, [2] is a specialized flow graph, a directed graph in which nodes represent system variables, and branches (edges, arcs, or arrows) represent functional connections between pairs of nodes.
Flow graph may refer to: Flow or rooted graph (graph theory), a graph in which a vertex has been distinguished as the root; Control-flow graph (computer science), a representation of paths through a program during its execution; Flow graph (mathematics), a directed graph linked to a set of linear algebraic or differential equations
