CompSys704

Got to lecture 30 min late because u was busy proof-reading my sustainability assignment. Wasted. Anyway, the lecturer is talking about the Kahn Process Network. In reality FIFOs (destructive) of unlimited lengths are required. If the buffers were unlimited then the process would be deterministic. Process works on concurrent systems and scheduling is dynamic.

Dataflow Process Networks specify when data is set to be processed. Tokens (number of data packets) specified statically.
