Abstract
We describe a simple representation for the modules of a graph G. We show that the modules of G are in one-to-one correspondence with the ideals of certain posets. These posets are characterized and shown to be layered posets, that is, transitive closures of bipartite tournaments. Additionaly, we describe applications of the representation. Employing the above correspondence, we present methods for solving the following problems: (i) generate all modules of G, (ii) count the number of modules of G, (iii) find a maximal module satisfying some hereditary property of G and (iv) find a connected non-trivial module of G.
