Sequential specification of time-aware stream processing applications (Extended abstract)

This paper introduces language constructs with temporal semantics to NLPs. Using these language constructs, time dependent applications can be specified and a corresponding data-driven implementation can be generated for use on a multi-core system. Despite that these time-aware language constructs can be data-dependent, the application remains functionally deterministic. Pipelining is exploited to increase the throughput of an application.
