In article <1992Dec20.054705.8951@ccnews.nctu.edu.tw+ blshyu@nctu.edu.tw () writes: +... + boolean + | + ---------------------- + | | + | animate_file + | | + | read_field + | | + animate_file iso_surface + | | + | render_geometry + | | + --------- --------- + | | + write_image + + The "write_image" module needs two inputs from the two branches of +the network indevudually. Since the right branche of the network +needs more time to complete the calculation than the left branch, I +need a method to do the synchronization of the two branch or I can have +many images saved with different names but with the same content. (sorry for including so much of the original article - it was unavoidable) Back when I was in school, the EE's would use a T-flop (trigger flip-flop) to solve this problem. At the IAC is a module called "shutter" which provides the functionality that you need. It takes as input an image, and when a "true" signal is applied to it's "fire" parameter, it sends the input image to its output port. So, your modified network would look like: + boolean + | + ---------------------- + | | | + | | animate_file + | | | + | | read_field + | | | + animate_file | iso_surface + | | | + | | render_geometry + | | | + --------- | --------- + | || + | shutter + | | + write_image + Happy holidays! wes
