Abstract
This paper describes about Data Flow Computers. The dataflow model of computation offers an attractive alternative to control flow in extracting parallelism from programs. The execution of a dataflow instruction is based on the availability of its operand(s); hence, the synchronization of parallel activities is implicit in the dataflow model. Instructions in the dataflow model do not impose any constraints on sequencing except for the data dependencies in the program.
