Research direction
Start by locating the standard to handshake dependence-analysis entry point and tracing how memory accesses are currently treated. Read the alias-analysis interfaces used by this compiler path and identify any related tests. Done means accesses to different memories are recognized as independent rather than all being conservatively dependent.
