Product lines of dataflows
Lienhardt M., Ter Beek M. H., Damiani F.
Data-centric parallel programming models such as dataflows are well established to implement complex concurrent software. However, in a context of a configurable software, the dataflow used in its computation might vary with respect to the selected options: this happens in particular in fields such as Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), where the shape of the domain in which the fluid flows and the equations used to simulate the flow are all options configuring the dataflow to execute. In this paper, we present an approach to implement product lines of dataflows, based on Delta-Oriented Programming (DOP) and term rewriting. This approach includes several analyses to check that all dataflows of a product line can be generated. Moreover, we discuss a prototype implementation of the approach and demonstrate its feasibility in practice.Source: The Journal of systems and software 210 (2024). doi:10.1016/j.jss.2023.111928
