Executable pseudocode / executable flowcharts (Kirby Urner)
Agilent has a product (looks like a reincarnation of what was formerly HP VEE) that allows graphical programming by hooking boxes together, using conditional branching. The same idea of user-definable parameters per box is implemented. Here the boxes may contain signal processing algorithms, such as a Fourier Transform or something.
This is also about boxes to represent programs: http://www.soe.berkeley.edu/~boxer/ "20 Reasons to use Boxer (Instead of Logo)" ftp://soe.berkeley.edu/pub/boxer/Distribution/20reasons.pdf Daniel
