ABSTRACT:
A method and means for allocating memory for a multiple program structure is described. The present invention includes a method and means for specifying a connection between the programming structures. The present invention also includes a method and means for connecting the programming structures by pointing the input data location of one of the programming structures to the output data location of the preceding programming structure, such that the buffer location used for storing data output from one programming structure becomes the buffer location used to input data into the next programming structure. The present invention also includes a method and means for creating an inter-task buffer. The inter-task buffer is created by first adding a first task which opens the inter-task buffer. The inter-task buffer is completed by adding another task directly after the first task. This second task closes the inter-task buffer. Adding a task between the first and second task takes the output buffer list as its input task list and takes the input buffer list as its output task list.
