Dependence analysis among software components is still a challenging issue for practitioners and researchers. We propose the representation of dependence among software components as a Component Interaction Graph (CIG). We make use of a well known data structure consisting of "two linear arrays" to represent the CIG. Based on this representation, we derived some dependency relationships. We evaluate the relationships by Weyukers' properties. We also have demonstrated with a possible CIG for a CBS to show the quantitative characteristics of the derived relationships. This work starts a discussion and calls for more extensive research oriented studies by professionals and academicians for perfection of the approach.
