A high-level block-diagram signal processing language
Gary E. Kopec · 2005
The model of discrete-time computation underlying most block diagram languages makes them inappropriate for many important signal processing algorithms. A conceptual framework for a general high-level block diagram programming system is proposed. This framework, the closure model, is motivated by the representation of functions used in applicative languages such as LISP. An experimental block diagram language, BDL, based on this model is described.
