Abstract

A computer-implemented method includes receiving an initial control flow graph (CFG) describing a project, where the project includes one or more programs. The initial CFG includes a plurality of graph nodes and a plurality of edges connecting the plurality of graph nodes to one another. Based on first profiling data, a first set of one or more graph nodes of the plurality of graph nodes of the initial CFG is selected as a first set of main nodes. The first profiling data describes a first execution history of the project. The initial CFG is simplified by generating a first final CFG, which includes the first set of main nodes and excludes one or more remaining nodes of the initial CFG that are not in the first set of main nodes.
