I'm sure this is open to interpretation...

To me, "depends" / "depended on by" indicate separate tasks that must be performed in sequence. I.e. I have to finish the one task before the other task can _start_.

And "parent" / "child" indicate composition of tasks. I.e. the child task is "part" of the parent. I say I have to finish the one task before the other task can _finish_.


My 2cents.
