Evaluation Boundaries

Open mitchmindtree opened this issue 6 years ago • 0 comments

In some cases it may be useful for some nodes to act as evaluation "boundaries". That is, traversal for push or pull evaluation cannot pass through the node. A couple examples that come to mind:

  • Delay nodes require haulting evaluation so that it may be resumed again after a certain time period.
  • StateSynchronisation (or better name) nodes - @freesig's idea for synchronising evaluation between push and pull evaluation sources executing at different rates.
  • Gates where ongoing evaluation might depend on some value (this might be more related to #21).
