1. A method comprising:
- loading one or more source processing chains to support execution of a development project, wherein loading of the one or more processing chains comprises;
identifying which source(s) will be required to support execution of the next M seconds of the development project;
searching one or more cache(s) to determine whether the source processing chain(s) associated with the source(s) are available within the one or more cache(s); and
retrieving the one or more processing chains from a memory location denoted by an associated one or more pointers in the cache for integration with the development project;
determining whether each of the one or more processing chains will be subsequently required during execution of this or another development project and, if so, caching those filter chains which will be subsequently required;
coupling said one or more source processing chains with a matrix switch comprising a scalable plurality of inputs and a scalable plurality of outputs, wherein any one or more of the inputs are iteratively coupled to any one or more of the outputs; and
processing media using said one or more source processing chains and said matrix switch to produce at least one development project.

Abstract
Systems and methods load one or more source processing chains to support execution of a development project and determine whether each of the one or more processing chains will be subsequently required during execution of this or another development project. If one or more processing chains are needed, each is cached for subsequent use. The source processing chains are coupled with a matrix switch comprising a scalable plurality of inputs and a scalable plurality of outputs, wherein any one or more of the inputs may be iteratively coupled to any one or more of the outputs. Media is processed using the source processing chain(s) and the matrix switch to produce at least one development project.
