In this paper, we present a theory of synchronous data-flow languages. Our theory is supported by both some heuristic analysis of applications and some theoretical investigation of the data-flow paradigm. Our model covers both behavioural and operational aspects, and allows both synchronous and asynchronous styles of implementation for synchronous programs. This model served as a basis to establish the GC common format for synchronous data-flow languages.
