Compute Engine

With the editor a schema is created using the base Blocks and making connections with the blocks. The data is assumed to flow from the output of one Block to the input of the other. The output of each Block is evaluated based on the computation function specified to it. And there for upon the evaluation of the compute function of each Block, its output is updated.

To determine which Block to evaluate first ande next and so on, a computational graph is built. From the graph a topological sort is performed to determine the order in which the Blocks need to be evaluated.

Warning

Cycles in the schema cannot be evaluated at this moment. The derived compuation graph needs to be a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG).
