10-  **Data flow graphs.** In this type of graph, data is passed along the
11   graph's edges. The nodes receive, transform and then pass along the
12   data messages.
13-  **Dependence graphs.** In this type of graph, the data operated on by
14   the nodes is obtained through shared memory directly and is not
15   passed along the edges.
