  • Abstract
    A model of data flow analysis and fixed point iteration solution procedures is presented. The faulty incremental iterative algorithm is introduced. Examples of the imprecision of restarting iteration from the intraprocedural and interprocedural domains are given. Some incremental techniques which calculate precise data flow information are summarized
