Stuck at data-flow? Do box-modeling!

Since yesterday, I'm working on a data-flow problem. I need to model a function and I should do all the data-flow process. Well, that's kinda long if I have to do that on all functions and especially I will never use much of the information I would generate by analyzing the tree associated to the function (local variables etc.). So what the point of doing that? None.
I was stuck at this point, didn't find a good way to model a function (entry parameters, global calls etc.) so I thought of reasoning as a crystal ball. I can see what it is, but it's kinda blurry :) I am now modeling a function as inputs and outputs, only in terms of functions and global variables interaction. By this, I should be able to see the possible interaction of the given function on the system. Hope it's gonna work well!
