Abstract

EASY-FLOW, a data flow language above the level of a traditional high level language, is presented for the purpose of adapting programs written in a conventional programming language to a parallel environment. A program written in EASY-FLOW consists of a set of subprogram calls as units, structured by iteration, branching, and distribution constructs. The sequencing of execution within these structures is dictated by the data dependencies between units.
