> Building environment for dataflow > programming from shell interpreter.
This is always somthing I have wanted to do for video stream processing, writeing a limited proceedural language which can be refactored as a dataflow graph for efficent implementation (of video processing). I always imagined it as a shell-like language rather than actually using an existing shell. Sadly this never got further than ideas and a few email exchanges with Byron. If you find any papers describing such things I would be interested in any references - I think I found some stuff from Berkley in the early 1990s from their work on a reconfigurable FPGA based image processing engine. -Steve
