I am looking at using some Dataflow programming techniques in a clojure program but I am having difficulty in finding much information from projects using Java, C#, or other mainstream languages that have used such techniques in the real world. I would be grateful to hear if anyone has any expereinces they could share regarding this.

    Here, we are! We’ve made… (quotation is from one of my older post):

    We’ve designed and implemented a DF
    server for our automation project
    (dispatcher, component iterface, a
    bunch of components, DF language, DF
    compiler, UI). It is written in bare
    C++, and runs on several Unix-like
    systems (Linux x86, MIPS, avr32 etc.,
    Mac OSX). It lacks several features,
    e.g. sophisticated flow control,
    complex thread control (there is only
    a not too advanced component for it),
    so it is just a prototype, even it
    works. We’re now working on a
    full-featured server. We’ve learnt lot
    during implementing and using the
    prototype.

    Also, we’ll make a visual editor some
    day.

    There’re dataflow systems wich don’t even mention dataflow approach:

    Writing a dataflow system is not rocket science. Here’s my older post about the basics of dataflow framework.

    The term dataflow is wide. There are realtime synchronous dataflow systems, like synthetisers and samplers, there are asynchronous ones, like our home aut. system (the system is in idle unless the user presses a button or a timer runs out), and there’re even different architectures, like spreadsheets or make.

    Wanna reading more about dataflow programming? Read J. Paul Morrison’s site and book.
