The paper presents the main differences of the new computing model and the system that implements this model from traditional dataflow systems. The parallel dataflow computing system architecture and I/O processor are briefly described. I/O processor is one of the main management elements of computing process in the system. Functionality of the token-generating unit and various input-output modes are also described. The data obtained with some experiments, which were carried out at the modelling programme for a number of problems, are given.
