data driven
     
        A data driven architecture/language performs computations in
        an order dictated by data dependencies.  Two kinds of data
        driven computation are {dataflow} and {demand driven}.
     
        From about 1970 research in parallel {data driven} computation
        increased.  Centres of excellence emerged at {MIT},
        {CERT-ONERA} in France, {NTT} and {ETL} in Japan and
        {Manchester University}.
