The Hierarchical Reachability Matrix is constructed in order to partition the element set into levels.

Process

  1. Two subsets of the element set are constructed for each element ei:
  • The reachability set Ri which involves all of those elements that are reachable from element ei
  • An antecedent set Ai which involves all of those elements that reach element ei.

In other words for each element ei the set Ri can be determined as the set of elements whose columns have an entry of 1 in row i of the Reachability Matrix.
