[gst-devel] gstreamer in a non-multimedia area?

[Wesley Smith]

Sounds like you're interested in applying dataflow networks to  
scientific computing.  There are a number of mostly commercial  
applications that do this but very few frameworks/libs.

Have you considered using a scripting language to glue everything  
together?  You'll have faster dev cycles and mote opportunity for  
customization.  This is my personal prefernce for scientific  
applications because the data is often heterogeneous.  What about a  
pre-baked solution like. SciPy or roll your own with lua
