VECTOR-BASED IDENTIFICATION OF SOFTWARE DEPENDENCY RELATIONSHIPS

Abstract:

Techniques for vector-based identification of software dependency relationships are described herein. An aspect includes determining a first dependency relationship value between a first code segment and a second code segment. Another aspect includes calculating a magnitude vector based on the first dependency relationship value and a second dependency relationship value corresponding to the first code segment and the second code segment. Another aspect includes determining a relationship score for the first code segment and the second code segment based on the magnitude vector and the first dependency relationship value
