Abstract

The network properties of large computer programs was investigated. The features were found to be generic for large computer programs. The structure of the programs was studied and a natural way to construct the networks underlying the programs was developed. The results for four widely used computer programs whose codes were publically available and can be downloaded from the Internet were presented.
