Abstract
A device creates a graph based on source code, and analyzes the source code to identify private variables and functions of the source code and public variables and functions of the source code. The device determines, based on the graph, a size threshold and semantics-related characteristics of functions and variables for each module, of multiple modules, and assigns, based on the graph, the private variables and functions to a corresponding module of the multiple modules. The device reduces, based on the graph, a number of the public variables and functions assigned to each module, and generates the multiple modules based on one or more of the graph, the size threshold, the assigned private variables and functions, and the number of the public variables and functions assigned to each module.
