Abstract

A dependence graph having a linear number of edges and one or more tie vertices is generated by constructing a tree of nodes, receiving requests to create cut and/or fan vertices corresponding to each node, adjusting a frontier of nodes up or down, and creating one or more cut or fan vertices, zero or more tie vertices, and at least one predecessor edge.
