A traditional program is usually represented as a series of text instructions, which is reasonable for describing a serial system which pipes data between small, single-purpose tools that receive, process, and return. Dataflow programs start with an input, perhaps the command line parameters, and illustrate how that data is used and modified ...
Google Cloud Dataflow was announced in June, 2014 [3] and released to the general public as an open beta in April, 2015. [4] In January, 2016 Google donated the underlying SDK, the implementation of a local runner, and a set of IOs (data connectors) to access Google Cloud Platform data services to the Apache Software Foundation.

Dataflow computing is a software paradigm based on the idea of representing computations as a directed graph, where nodes are computations and data flow along the edges. [1] Dataflow can also be called stream processing or reactive programming. [2] There have been multiple data-flow/stream processing languages of various forms (see Stream ...
Dataflow programming languages rely on a (usually visual) representation of the flow of data to specify the program. Frequently used for reacting to discrete events or for processing streams of data. Examples of dataflow languages include:
Dataflow architecture is a dataflow-based computer architecture that directly contrasts the traditional von Neumann architecture or control flow architecture. Dataflow architectures have no program counter, in concept: the executability and execution of instructions is solely determined based on the availability of input arguments to the instructions, [1] so that the order of instruction ...
Flow-based programming defines applications using the metaphor of a "data factory". It views an application not as a single, sequential process, which starts at a point in time, and then does one thing at a time until it is finished, but as a network of asynchronous processes communicating by means of streams of structured data chunks, called "information packets" (IPs).
The dataflow variables of Oz act as concurrent logic variables, and also have blocking semantics as mentioned above. A concurrent constraint variable is a generalization of concurrent logic variables to support constraint logic programming : the constraint may be narrowed multiple times, indicating smaller sets of possible values.
Data-flow analysis is a technique for gathering information about the possible set of values calculated at various points in a computer program.A program's control-flow graph (CFG) is used to determine those parts of a program to which a particular value assigned to a variable might propagate.
