Abstract

We are interested in the effects of timing dependence and recursion in the class of parallel program schemata. We compare the expression power of some classes of dataflow schemata: UDF, DF π, RDF etc. DF π includes a π-gate which introduces timing dependence, and RDF has a facility for recursion and UDF has both devices. In conclusion, we show some inclusion relations between classes, including the existence of a class standing between EF and EF d. These relations reveal the role of timing dependence and recursion.
