Introduction to path products
- The control flow connectivity is usually denoted by the flow graphs
- A name is the simplest weight that can be given to a linl. Every link of a graph can be given a name
- The name of the link is denoted by lower case italic letters
- From entry to exit for the flow graph, link denotes the set of all possible paths
- There is a scope of changing the graphical flow graph into an equivalent algebric like expressions by using the link names as weights
- Succession of link names can be travesed by tracing a path or path segment through a flow graph
- The name of the path or path segment that relates to those links is expressed by joining those link names
Example: If you traverse links a, b, c and d along some path, the name for that path segment is abcd. This path name is also called a path product
Few examples are displayed below
