Flow Based Programming Applied to IoT Development

Explore Flow Based Programming (FBP) and its application to Internet of Things (IoT) development in this 54-minute conference talk by Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri from ProFUSION Embedded Systems. Learn how FBP addresses the challenges of creating IoT software that must operate in dynamic environments with multiple concurrent inputs and outputs. Discover how the Soletta Project, a software framework for IoT devices, implements FBP to solve common programming issues. Gain insights into the benefits of FBP and see how it can be scaled down to microcontrollers. Understand the advantages of FBP over traditional approaches like multi-threading and event-loop programming in IoT development. Benefit from Barbieri's extensive experience in open-source software development and embedded systems as he presents real-life examples and practical applications of FBP in IoT contexts.
