Abstract:
Visual representation can help programmer to program in a direct manipulated way. This paper presents a visual language which employs object--oriented methodology and dataflow diagrams. In the dataflow network, processing stations are objects which can be multiparadigm in the low level implementation. What paradigm should be selected is determined by application domain. This supports programmers of different levels and different domains. In a high level, dataflow diagram is used to construct the relationships between objects. To simplify the complicated relationships, a hierarchical representation called dataflow unit is employed.
