Subtopic: I/O stream 
| Quote: the behavior of an I/O stream manipulator is determined partially by its creator and partially by its caller
| | Quote: every I/O stream has a state associated with it; used for handling errors and non-standard conditions [»stroB_1991]
| | Quote: the stream model replaces a memory cell with a pipeline and enque/deque operations [»wegnP_1979b]
| | QuoteRef: burgWH1_1975 ;;15 streams are a basic idea. an infinite list, e.g., I/O or a generator
|
Subtopic: character stream
| Quote: character-stream I/O combine general, dynamically variable, formatting with conceptual simplicity [»huntG6_1977]
| | Quote: stream I/O converts typed objects into untyped character sequences, and vice versa. Stream I/O is fundamental [»stroB_1991]
|
Subtopic: data stream
| Quote: a data stream is described by a producing grammar and a consuming grammar which both describe the same result [»jackMA5_1976]
|
Subtopic: stream processing
| Quote: can think of an array as a stream that is processed one element at a time; avoids the array bottleneck [»ackeWB_1979]
|
Subtopic: stream filter
| Quote: an I/O stream manipulator is a function that takes a stream as input and returns a stream; use it to insert functions like 'flush()' and 'skipspacing()' in a list of input or output operations [»stroB_1991]
| | Quote: filter programming produces an output stream from an input stream; both streams should be general [»kernBW_1975, OK]
| | Quote: a filter imports a stream interface and exports another stream interface [»redeDD2_1980]
|
Subtopic: stream package
| Quote: a standard stream package for Modula-3; illustrates partially opaque types and the isolation of unsafe code; based on Topaz [»browMR_1991]
| | Quote: a stream function creates a stream by allocating memory and setting function pointers, input stream, and initial data [»stoyJE3_1972]
|
Subtopic: stream as first-class entity
| Quote: OS 6 streams are first class objects; assign to variables, use as parameters, returned by stream functions; e.g., RemoveLayoutChs to remove layout from a stream [»stoyJE3_1972]
|
Subtopic: transducer
| Quote: a transducer creates a stream interface from a device driver interface [»redeDD2_1980]
| | Quote: V stream devices, e.g., terminals, must store the last block to provide idempotent transactions
|
Subtopic: instruction stream
Quote: an instruction stream consists of tokens in several classes; a token consists of bit fields
[»ramsN5_1997]
