Graphs, Tasks, & Functions

Execution Model
The different data structures used by Floe are
interconnected to describe an application in the following manner:
- Graphs are comprised of Tasks, MConds, and Streams.
- The dependencies in a Graph may either be specified explicitly
in dependent Tasks and MConds or implicitly through Streams.
- Tasks represent the evaluation of a particular Function or
Graph in a particular context.
- Functions reference one or more Graph or Instruction Objects.

Libraries are supported in order to provide
Instructions separate from the User Application:
