1. A. computer-implemented method for generating a hardware implementation of graphical code, the method comprising:

  • creating a graphical program, wherein the graphical program includes a plurality of nodes, wherein at least a subset of the plurality of nodes are connected to indicate data flow among the at least a subset of the plurality of nodes, wherein the plurality of nodes includes a structure node, wherein the structure node represents control flow of data among one or more of the plurality of nodes;

    generating a hardware description based on the graphical program, wherein the hardware description describes a hardware implementation of the graphical program, wherein said generating includes generating the hardware description based on the structure node;

    configuring a programmable hardware element utilizing the hardware description to produce a configured hardware element, wherein the configured hardware element implements a hardware implementation of the graphical program.
