  • Method and apparatus for automatically constructing a data flow architecture
    Patent number: 5950182
    Abstract: An automatic data flow architecture builder is disclosed that is operable to take raw data which is stored in a raw data buffer (60) and transform it for storage in a transformed data buffer (78). A plurality of transform blocks (68), (70) and (72) are provided for this transform operation, these disposed in a predetermined data flow. When the user inputs a new transform to be disposed within the data flow of the transforms, rules are applied via a rule-base processing system (74) to apply a set of predetermined rules in a rule database (76) to the transform. These rules determine where the transform is to be inserted. This provides an automatic construction operation of a data flow architecture.
    Type: Grant
