Abstract
A fine-grained data-flow analysis framework (L, F) where the elements of the semilattice L are mappings from a set of items I to a semilatti ce of values V is introduced, and an algorithm is presented to solve t his framework by considering the elements of I and V individually, rat her than regarding the elements of L as atomic values. It is shown tha t a variety of useful data-flow problems fit into the fine-grained dat a-flow analysis framework, and can be solved in O(\I\ x \N\) time.
