  • Abstract
    Though lots of data flow analysis techniques were proposed that handle array variables, they are restricted to the application of different compiler optimizations and give no precise result. We present a new method that determines definition-use (du) pairs more precisely and it also gives the program path of each du pair. Therefore, this is the first array analysis technique that is well-applicable for data flow testing
