(A)

Strongly Connected Components

(B)

Topological Sorting

(C)

Breadth First Search

(D)

Dijkstra\’s Shortest Path



Answer: (B)

Explanation:

Make can decide the order of building software using topological sorting. Topological sorting produces the order considering all dependencies provide by makefile. See following for details. Topological Sorting

Hence Option(B) is the correct answer.
