interdependent *with* or interdependent *upon*?

probably not important, but which is it:
interdependent with, or interdependent upon?
or does it depend on context?
(or, is there an altogether better way of putting it than that anyway???)

the brain's just melting a little... any ideas welcome

i would probably say "interdependent within", as in, "variables y and z are shown/believed/ to be interdependent within x context". it might have to do with the context i look at, though. hope that helps!
