[comp.compilers] References wanted for Block-diagram compilers of Signal Flow Graphs

andy@spec0.electrical-engineering.manchester.ac.uk (MSc) (11/28/90)

Hi,
	I'm a research student doing some work on the simulation of DSP
algorithms which are specified as cyclic directed graphs (Signal Flow
Graphs). A node in such a graph represents an arbitrary function such as
an FFT or a filter of some kind. An arc representsa First In First Out
queue of data elements. Each time a node executes it consumes data from
its input queues and produces data onto its output queues. 

	I'm interested in references which describe how to produce a
correct schedule for the execution of an algorithm specified as a signal
flow graph. I already have references for Blosim.

If there is a large response I'll post a summary to the net.

Thanks in advance,
		  Andy N.
