Parallel Processing

MERLIC allows the parallel processing of tools to perform multiple tasks at the same time. When the execution of a MERLIC Vision App (MVApp) is triggered, for example, via the or button in the menu bar, the image acquisition is done first before the tool flow of the MVApp is executed. This applies for each execution cycle. Thus, a continuous execution corresponds to a series of single executions. Independent tool flows A Tool Flow is a group of tools that are connected. The connection between the tools may consist of data connections, trigger connections, or a combination of both. It represents the steps of your MERLIC Vision App and visualizes the dependencies between tools. will be started at the same time but might not finish at the same time if they are not synchronized by using a common tool. If the tool flows are not synchronized, faster tool flows will be idle until started again at the next execution.

If you are executing MERLIC in process integration mode, it runs through different types of internal states. For more information see the topic MERLIC States
