Write your program and Run in it in Dataflow mode NOW

The DATAFLOW RUN TIME (click to go to the SourceForge page).

This software aims at demonstrating that we can easily provide a very small and powerful runtime for running programs that are coded in whatever programming model, but that could be *executed* in a DATAFLOW style. The Dataflow Run Time (DRT) provides the runtime support for that

The first benefit of this software is to allow a rapid development of such programs in the context of the TERAFLUX project http://teraflux.eu

Bridging the Exascale Programming Gap with Dataflow based Technologies

Submitted by giorgi on Mon, 2013-01-28 18:19

Dataflow is the most efficient Computational Paradigm. Jack Dennis, the father of Dataflow has defined it as "A Scheme of Computation in which an activity is initiated by presence of the data it needs to perform its function". New ways of exploiting this principle are nowadays available. In terms of programming models we see at least: OmpSs, OpenStream, DDM-TFLUX, DataFlow-Scala, SWARM, just to name a few. Start-ups like CAPS, MAXELER, are also making available powerful dataflow based technologies. How effective are those technologies? Is there a clear winner?
