Résumé:
|
This research addresses the problem of generating source code for an object oriented image processing application by means of graphic manipulation. The visual symbols (called icons) manipulated by the user on the screen are linked through data- and/or control-connections. The acyclic graphical structure (whose nodes are visual symbols and whose edges are data- and control-connections) built by the user on the screen is parsed and the corresponding source code is generated. The programming environment developed in this research can be used to generate source code for any type of object-oriented application. An example has been implemented and demonstrated in the field of multi-sensor data visualization. The source code generated by means of graphic manipulation was cross-compiled, down-loaded into a massively parallel Single Instruction Multiple Data computer and executed. |
